History

The origin of Karate can be traced to China. If ancient cave drawings can be recognizedas Karate, then it is almost 5000 years old.

Karate was brought to Okinawa and the Ryukyu Islands about 500 years ago and it wasthere that modern Karate evolved from the Chinese prototypes.

Funakoshi, Mubuni, and Miyagi introduced Karate to Japan in the early 19th century. Ofthese masters, Funakoshi is credited with establishing Karate in Japan. One of his premier pupilswas Dr. Chitose, founder of the Chito-Ryu System. Dr. Chitose was the instructor of Mas Tsuoka,the man credited with introducing Karate to Canada in 1960. Monte Guest was one of Tsurokastop pupils, alongside Shane Higashi, the first Canadian National Karate Champion.

Guest was Tsurokas head instructor, until he formed the Kai Shin Karate Associationand began to teach pupils of his own. Recently, the Kai Shin style was recognized by theGovernment of Ontario, and was allowed membership into the Karate Ontario association, andSensei Guest as its founder was recognized as the head of Kai Shin Karate. Tsuroka Senseiranked him a 6th degree blackbelt in 1998.

Many of Sensei Guests original students such as Gord Davis, Gino and Angie Egizzi,Mike Chapman, and Michael Hirchberg, had much success on the tournament circuit. MichaelHirchberg was the original instructor of David Denov.

History

Chinese Karate (Kung Fu & Tai Chi Chuan), can be briefly summarized as thus: Allmovements are circular and smooth. The hands are used for most blocks and strikes, while kicksand punches are not used to the same extent as the harder styles such as Japanese Karate.Chinese Karate styles are more intricate and flowery, making them almost dance like.

Korean Karate (Tae Kwon Do), seems to be the antithesis of its Chinese counterpart.The movements are hard and linear, with a strong emphasis on kicks, relying on speed andpower. A great deal of Tae Kwon Do, is an adaptation of Japanese Karate with Koreanizedtechniques and kata. This is due to the long Japanese occupation of Korea.

History

Okinowan Karate (Shorin Ryu), emphasizes kata. In many Okinowan schools, kata is themain part of their training. Until recently, sparring was not a part of their training, but now theyhave taken it as a formal part of the Okinowan system, with full armour and gloves.

Ju Jutsu or Jiu Jitsu meaning the gentle art is a Japanese art devised mainly for self-defence. There are no tournaments for Ju Jutsuka as all of their techniques are designed topermanently injure their attackers. It is a hard-hitting style of Martial Art that includes punches,kicks below the belt, throws, chokes and joint articulation techniques.

Canadian History

In 1959, Masami Tsuroka opened the Tsuroka Karate School in Toronto. Some of hisearlier students include: Shane Higashi, the first Canadian Karate Champion; Benny Allen,founder of Eastern Karate Schools; Quoi Wong, of Wongs Karate School; Monte Guest, founderof Kai Shin Karate Schools; and many others who head leading Karate schools in Montreal,Ottawa, Winnipeg, and Vancouver. Tsuroka has more than anyone else, propagated Karate inCanada.

Tsuroka is not necessarily the first. Ari Anastadiadis for example introduced ShotokanKarate at about the same time in Montreal. It is difficult to present an accurate history of theorigins of Karate, as it was first brought here by the Chinese immigrants who secretly practicedChinese Karate in the form of Tai Chi or Kung Fu. The bamboo curtain has been liftedsomewhat, but in downtown Toronto, the Hong Luck Kung Fu Club still meet very privately.

In the mid-sixties, Tae Kwon Do was brought to Toronto by Mr. Lee, and Mr. Jong Park.Parks dazzling display of ten foot high kicks, and other spectacular feats created a veryfavourable impression on the Canadian National Exibition visitors. This enhanced and widendthe scope of Karate in Canada. Some of Mr. Jong Parks original students include Mr. DonJames, Mr. Cees Keugans, and Mr. Dino Hennings.

Now, Martial Arts studios can be found everywhere and the popularity of Karate growslarger still. Men like Bruce Lee, Chuck Norris, Dolph Lundgren and Jean Claude Van Dammehave made Martial Arts films very popular, and given the Martial Arts a strong base to survive inthe future.
