Grand Master Hironori Ohtsuka (1893-1982) founded Wado Ryu Karate by merging aspects of Shindo Yoshin Ryu Jujutsu with Okinawan Karate. While it's techniques look very much like Karate, the underlying principles were taken from Shindo Yoshin Ryu. The key to Wado Ryu is taisabaki, which translated from Japanese means body management or body manipulation. This is achieved by moving along rather than moving against an attack in order to take up a position that will give one an advantage on an opponent. Wado Ryu can be broken down like this:
WA- Harmony DO- Way Ryu- Style or School
Ohtsuka Sensei's Seisan
DOJO Precepts
Perfect One's CharacterDedicate Oneself to Others
Uphold Honor, Bravery, and Justice
Never Stop Learning
Obtain Victory Without Conflict

- Thank you, and tell your daughter I said congratulations. Shodan is an important journey that I have been putting off for far too long. It is like being born in Karate.

- Hi, Curtis. Powerful stuff you have here. Great videos with katas. My daughter is a karateka too. She's turning 16 (tomorrow) and has brown/stripe belt - next one will be black! We're very proud of her (like you about your kids...). Her teacher is Kyoshi Mike Puckett. 5* for this one!
