Hello karate enthisiasts!!! There are lots of karate styles and I'm curious how many we have here.So, what style do you do?
I do Okinawan Gou-Ryu 15yrs. currently Nidan.

YAY!! Karate forum!!

Sanchin,

I am a "lapsed" Uechi-ryu practitioner. (Broke a wrist just before my purple belt test & eventually moved on to hapkido)

HOWEVER, I am STILL an active Uechi fighter and turn up regularly at my old dojo to take on all comers (seriously).

Don't think there are many Uechi-ryu folks here but I'm interested to know.

I do shotokan karate (7 years 1st Dan).

Okinawa Kenpo Karate- Nidan (11 years on and off)

Seiei Kan mainly, with some experiance in shorin ryu and shotokan. I'm currently interested in studying goju ryu methods, and am looking for an instructor around here. It's good to finally have a karate forum.
