I can see myself in each of my students.
Each error that they make reminds me of my own faults. I am responsible for their movements. If they are moving incorrectly, it is because of me.
However, as they progress, I feel it is by their own effort.
My job is to dilligently stomp our my own errors in them.
Respectfully,
Charles C. Goodin
"Karate Jutsu" means "China Hand art". Karate came to Okinawa from China. Only in the 1930s or so, was the term "Karate" changed to mean "Empty Hand". "China Hand" was used in Hawaii until after World War II, and is still used in some dojo.
For more information, please visit the Hawaii Karate Seinenkai website.
The spirit of Karate is the Aloha spirit.
