Shotokan Karate Team Karlsruhe

The Shotokan Karate Team in Karlsruhe welcomes you to their website, where you can find information about their club. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact them. Karate begins with respect and ends with respect, as stated by Gichin Funakoshi. The club's philosophy is centered around the traditional art of Shotokan Karate, which has its roots in China. The style is based on three pillars: Kihon (basic techniques), Kata (forms that apply learned techniques in a fictional combat), and Kumite (sparring). The club aims to teach and develop the personalities of its students through discipline, self-control, and concentration. They offer free trial training sessions for interested beginners, and members can take regular exams up to the 1st Kyu grade. The club also organizes charity events and self-defense courses, which are open to non-members as well.
