Welcome to the Enshin Karate Honbu
Enshin Karate Honbu
Enshin Karate is a practical system of empty-handed self-defense based on a strategy of circular movement allowing you to use your opponent's power and momentum against him or her. This strategy, called Sabaki, enables its practitioners to convert defense into offense. Enshin stresses the development of flexibility, power, and speed, with emphasis on stretching, conditioning, and technique.
Training in Enshin Karate builds spiritual awareness, mental alertness, a sense of confidence, and provides resources for meeting the challenges encountered in life. Enshin Karate was developed by Kancho Joko Ninomiya, winner of the 1978 All-Japan Tournament and founder of the Sabaki Challenge.
The Sabaki Challenge is the internationally-famous competition for world champions in full contact karate. Black belts from all martial arts compete for the title of world champion in their weight division. The Sabaki Challenge uses a rigorous format of full-contact, bare-knuckles punches and kicks without the use of pads or gloves for protection. Enshin Karate black belts are eligible to fight in the tournament.
