Every class in Enshin Karate begins with Meditation, warm-ups and stretching followed by a routine of basic punches, blocks and kicks. These basics are important to novice and veteran alike.
For the rest of the class these basic techniques are used in practical applications. Students practice combination techniques and work with partners the main focus being Enshin’s unique “Sabaki Method” …. Circular movement to the outside of an attack. Instead of absorbing the blows of an attack met straight on, the Student learns how to avoid impact by moving to a “blind spot” position from which you can use the attacker’s power and momentum against them.
The only competition in an Enshin Karate dojo is within the student to try to be the best he or she can be. Enshin Karate is for anyone who is interested in learning and willing to work at it. The strategy and techniques are designed to be effective regardless of size. An Enshin dojo is dedicated to the traditional values of courtesy, respect, and challenge as a way to develop and improve oneself
