Karate

Modern Karate was first demonstrated in Japan in 1922 By Gichin Funakoshi, founder of Shotokan karate. How ever the history of karate goes further back than this to the Ryukyu Islands off the coast of Japan today known as Okinawa . The origins of Okinowa-te are not fully known but it is believed that some of the influences from this came from China and its development brought about by the ban of weapons in Okinawa in the 15th century.

Aikido or "Harmony of Life Force Way"

A modern Japanese martial art developed in the mid - 20th century by Ueshiba Morihei O' Sensei from the Daito Ryu Aikijitsu tradition.

Aikido includes Nage-Waza (Throwing), Uke-Waza (Falling), and Osae-Waza (Controlling), Aikido practioners utilize Irimi (Entering) and Tai no henka (Body shifting) to direct the attacker's energy or intention away from themselves.
