ASV Stuttgart-Botnang Karate

At ASV Stuttgart-Botnang Karate, we practice what is known as style-open karate (SOK). We have consciously chosen this path to meet the current demands placed on our martial art in today's age. We place special emphasis on practicality and applicability in everyday life. Our self-defense techniques are derived from Goshin Karate. In style-open karate, kata is regarded as a fundamental component, similar to other traditional styles. Our focus lies on kata, kihon, and application. Learning kata serves to internalize the central techniques, and we learn the katas from Shotokan Karate. Our style-open karate includes practical self-defense techniques that are oriented towards real-life situations. Anyone interested, from teenagers to seniors, can join. The trainers reserve the right to decide on the permission of training participation, as these are real self-defense techniques that must be handled responsibly.
