About Wado Karate
Wado-ryu style of karate was created by Master Hironori Ohtsuka. In 1939 it was registered as a style with the Dai-Nippon-Butoku-Kai (Japan’s National association for the martial arts) and the “Way of Peace” style was born. Wado-ryu karate focuses on body shifting and evasion to evade opponent’s attacks.
IMPORTANT - Change to Ji yu Kumite (Free Fighting) in Gradings
For the kumite (sparring) part of the grading, it is now compulsory to wear a gum shield. We also recommend that sparring mitts, shin guards and feet protectors are also worn for your own safety.
This applies to anyone taking a grade for 6th Mon (Green/White-Stripe belt) and above and is effective from December 2024.
