KITA KAZE EMBLEM


Every emblem h a s a symbolfc meaning. Thfs i s t h e meaning oP o u r s .

Our emblem contains three circles. The outer of the emblem itself, the line inside the
wreath and the line within the wreath. The first line symbolizes infinity. Time without
end. Since circles have a continuous line without breaks or angles, the second line
symbolizes perfection. The third line, because a circle encloses what is within its limits,
symbolizesunity. Therefore the shape of our emblem means infinity, perfection and unity.

The central pattern reflect the I n and Yo Japanese symbol of opposites. I n and Yo
symbolize our thoughts in strategy, there is a I n and Yo phase to every attack.
Redirection of direction. The duality of opposites is a comnon concept throughout Japan
and Okinaws. These are the very roots of our Martial Arts. The common practice of
reaction fiom action. The I n and Yo are also the symbol of balance. Defining the
balance in oneself is a constant struggle to Master. Once a Martial Artist can achieve this
balance I believe he can then tap his Ki at will. The wreath symbolizes our Karate History,
the Masters before us that have dedicated their lives to Karate training and teaching.

In addition to it's shape and pattern we must consider it's colors. Our Association has a
long line of history with Instructors fiom many background, many of which have a lot in
common. The Red Sun is a symbol the Japanese use for their flag. Our practice of
Martial Arts historically dates back to Japan fiom Masters such as Richard P Baillergeon,
Soke Shogu Kuniba, Motobu and Mabuni. So therefore we should honor that heritage.
Karate-do is not just a practice or hobby. (1t is a way of life1 It is time consuming,
demanding, punishing, frustrating. It requires discipline and focus. It builds character, self
esteem and provides a new view of life for each of us. It takes a lifetime of devotion of
more than just time. It takes physical devotion and demands attention. The red wreath
represent intensity and fierceness. The Black symbolizes void, emptiness and no
pretensions.

Our emblem represents many hours of sweat, determination and labor from not one, but
many Martial Artist. The circles in our emblem remind us that we are united, we have a
common bond that leads us to strive for perfection of technique and character. It reminds
us that we must 'without question defend the paths of truth. That we have an endless road
of effort ahead. Courtesy demands courage and effort, and that we must guard that
impetuous courage in each of us, to keep our minds open to other thoughts and beliefs.

-The emblem of the Kita Kaze Bujutsu Kai represents honor and integrity. The foundation
of our association.

Section Two AN ABBREVIATED HISTORY OF KARATE

The origins of Karate are to be found in 12th Century China. There were a number of
ancient Chinese systems, collectively known as KEMPO or "Way of the Fist."
In Okinawa, the possession of weapons and the practice of martial arts were forbidden
during the 15th Century. From that time until the early 20th Century, the Okinawans practiced
their martial arts in secrecy. This secrecy limited the amount of written material on the history of
martial arts. World War I1 destroyed much of the little written history that existed.
Early Okinawan weapon less martial arts were known as TE, a word meaning hand.
During the 15th Century, Chinese visitors introduced KEMPO into Okinawa. As KEMPO was
blended into TE, the resulting art became known as TODE, or Chinese Hand. Another meaning
for the Chinese character that represents TO was KARA, meaning Open, with the result that the
weapon less martial arts of Okinawa finally became known as KARATE.
There were three main cities in Okinawa. Each developed its own version of Karate:
Tomari developed TOMARI-TE; Naha, NAHA-TE; and Shuri, the capital city, SHURT-TE.
TOMARI-TE was quite similar to SHUN-TE and was gradually absorbed into SHURI-TE.
There were other systems, to be sure, but by the 19th Century, only two main divisions remained:
NAHA-TE and SHLTRI-TE.
Matsumura, Sokan or Bushi (1797-1889) was responsible for organizing the SHURI-TE
system and carrying on its teachings. He was followed by Itosu, Anko (1830-1915). Itosu is
generally credited with the founding of SHORIN-RYU. (RYU means style.) Next followed
Mabuni, Kenwa (1889-1957). Mabuni is the founder of SHITO-RYU, the style, or system
followed here.
3 But it is not that simple. Higashionna Wgaonna), Kanryo (1845-1915) became the
leading master of the NAHA-TE system. Mabuni also studied under Higashionna, and when he
developed his SHITO-RYU system, he used elements of both NAHA-TE and SHURI-TE. The

-
name SHITO-RYU comes fiom the first syllable of Itosu (ITO=SHI) and of Zgashionna
(HIGA=TO). Hence SHITO-RYU, a blending of Itosu's and Higashionnats styles and names.
Many other masters contributed to Karate along the way. Alexander, in his book Okinawa,
Island of Karate (briefly described above) gives the early genealogy of SHURI-TE as Peishin,
Takahara (1683-1 760); Sakugawa, Karate (1733-1 815); and Matsumura, Sokon (1797- 1889).
Itosu followed Matsumura. Other masters contributed greatly to each system. Among them,
Motobu, Choki (187 1-1944).

Section Three MOTOBU-HA SHITO-RYU

Master Choki Motobu was born the third son to the Motobu famiIy in Okinawa. The
Motobu family was of Samurai class, which meant that the first son of the family was taught the
family fighting methods. Choki Motobu, being frustrated by this, tried to sneak in and watch his
older brothets training. Master Motobu soon found that this was too slow and fiustrating for
him, so he began to lift heavy rocks and punch the punching post or Makiwara. After a while, he
became so strong that he earned the name "Monkey King" because of his tremendous leaping
ability and general agility. In his youth, Master Motobu became known as a brawler and a trouble
maker, so when he became the student of Master Itosu, this added to his difficulties about being
accepted as a student of one of the foremost Masters in Okinawa. Master Motobu challenged
many men in Japan. However, the defeat of a Russian boxer may have made him the most
famous. In 1922, Master Motobu helped Master Funakoshi start the teaching of Karate to the
Japanese. Filled with a new outlook on his life, Master Motobu returned to Okinawa in 1936 and
began training with Master Kentsu Yabu. Master Yabu was the only man to have ever defeated
Master Motobu. Master Motobu instructed many noted Masters, among them are Shoshin
Nagamine ,Tatsuo Shimabuku, and Kosei Kuniba.
Motobu-Ha Shito-Ryu literally means Shito-Ryu of Motobu. Master Choki Motobu lived
from 1871 to 1944 and trained many Shito-Ryu Karate people, among those people was Master
Kuniba, Kosei of the Seishinkai Karate dojo in Osaka, Japan. After moving to Japan in 1926
Master Motobu began teaching in Osaka, at the Seishinkai, and in Tokyo. Master Motobu left a
strong fighting legacy to the Shito-ryu of the Seishinkai. Master Motobu's Kata knowledge was
-2 limited and he believed mainly in makiwara training and Kumite. He stated in his book, about
Okinawan training techniques, that Naihanshi Kata was all one needed to be a strong fighter.
The Seishinkai Karate dojo named the Karate that it taught Motobu ha Shito-ryu, in honor
of Master Motobu.
Master Itosu (1813-1915) taught the following people in Okinawa: Gichin Funakoshi
(considered the father of modem karate; Chosin Chibana (Founder of Kobayashi Shorin-ryu);
Shinpan Gusukuma; Kentsu Yabu (defeated Motobu in match and eventually became Motobu's
third instructor); Kenwa Mabuni (Mabuni trained under Itosu and Higaonna, and fiom that
training formulated the Mabuni system of Shito-Ryu); (also taught at the Seishinkai) and Kanken
Toyama. Master Motobu studied under Itosu, Anko; Matsumora, Kosaku; and Yabu, Kentsu.
Both Motobu and Mabuni taught at the Seishinkai Dojo, this is perhaps why the Shito-ryu Karate
system is a combination of Shurite, Nahate, and Tomarite.
Shito-Ryu had a variety of influences fiom many different masters in the middle 1800's.
This diverse influence gave rise to a very complex system of Karate.
The headquarters of Motobu ha Shito- ryu karate is the Seishin Kai, in Osaka, Japan. The
Seishinkai Karate Dojo was founded in the early 1900ts, when Kosei Kuniba moved to Japan fiom
-0kinawa.
After studying with Soke Richard Baillargeon and Shihan Ruiz fiom 1979 to 1987, and
with Shihan Ruiz fiom 1987 to 1991 Shihan,Kelley formed the Kita Kaze Bujutsu Kai in 1991.
The KKBK is an organiztltion for the preservation of Traditonal Karate, Kobudo, Iaido, and Tai
Jutsu.
Kita Kaze Bujutsu Kai
Student and Instructors Guide
Karate is a multi-purpose training program that will enhance the shape of both the body
and the mind. This program will increase awareness, sharpen reflexes, tone the muscles, and
promote coordination. The length of time devoted to the study of Karate will, of course, bear
directly on the progress that the student will make in the art. The accepted minimum amount of
training is three one hour lessons a Week!

Kobudo is simply the study of the ancient weapons that were used buy the Karate
Masters in Okinawa (Bo, Sai, Tonfa, Nunchaku, and Kama). The study of weaponry by a Karate
novice, after three months, is desirable to enhance his or her strength in the chest and shoulders
and to teach them the value of using a weapon. The study of Kobudo; is important fiom the
viewpoint that to be able too defend oneself against a weapon it is necessary to know how to use
that weapon.

Tai Jutsu is a method of combat that was used by the ancient samurai and includes
throws, joint locks, chokes and pressure points. The weapons of Tai Jutsu are sword, spear, knife
and Manriken.

Iai-do is the study of the sword as a way to inner peace, and also as a weapon of offense
and defense.

Remember: Martial arts teachers are nothing more than guides to a student striving to
further his studies. Martial arts teachers are all students, and none of us knows everything there
is to know of the art. My first guide ,Shonosuke Ando, fiom Japan, said that to be a Master, one
must be aperpetual student. I once asked Master Ando about the difference between Karate and
Kobudo. His answer will always stay with me. He said , "Karate is of the heart andKobtrdo is
of the mind". Think about them for a while." I'm still thinking about it. twenty-five years later. I
also asked him what is the best target to strike if you want to see dramatic results. His answer
was a laugh and a smile in combination with a pat on the head. I realize now that perhaps the will
be in my own future and not from someone else's past. In truth, karate is nothing more than a
series of complex body movements that will enable the student to be aware of himself. Karate is
also nothing less. Your karate is your life and should be lived every day. The philosophies of
Karate are very simple to learn, but very complex to put into action. I will take a page later to
examine the Dojo Kun (Morals of the school) and their interrelation to the student, in or our or
the Dojo.

Section four GENERAL KARATE INFORMATION
There are nine student levels, also called & grades. These kyu grades are signdied by
/ the colors of the belt, and these belt colors have meaning within our karate system. There are also
9 advanced grades, called grades. These grades signify the student's proficiency in the art. It
is the purpose of the colored belts to indicate not the length of time in the art, but to describe the
level of training.

White belt -- The color purity

Yellow belt -- The dawning of a new day


Orange belt -- The beginning of consciousness

Blue belt -- The color of a new and open mind (blue sky)

Green belt -- The color of fiesh and growing things


Purple belt -- The color of mild conf'usion

Brown belt -- The color of the earth (Solid and Unyielding)

Black belt -- The color of void (Empty of all pretensions)

Each student should strive not for the belt, but for the knowledge that the belt represents.
In the earlier times, the intensity of one's training was represented by the dirt on one's white belt.
The longer and the more intensely the student trained, the darker his belt became until the white
belt, which was the beginning, became the black belt of a hard-training teacher.

stripes respectively. A-purple belt may be replaced by a green belt with one stripe. All
stripes are to be black in color.

Note: Dan rank belts will have association name on one side and personal name on the other side.
The association name may be combined with style name. The association recognizes that
many black belts proudly wear black belts previously issued and honor this by permitting
the wearing ofthese belts rather than the association belt.

Note: Outstanding students may bypass one ,grade up to and including 4th kyu. All other time in
grade must be achieved at each grade level prior to testing.

Section Five. THE TEACHING SYSTEM IN KARATE

I SENSEI BLACK BELT 1ST DAN & ABOVE


SHMAN DAI BLACK BELT 3RD DAN TO 4TH DAN
S m BLACK BELT 5TH DAN & ABOVE
SOKE HEREDITARY LEADER 8TH DAN & ABOVE

The teaching system is designed to remind us that not all dank are teachers. The teachers
in our system have to be able to instruct the students in basics, kata, bunkai and kumite. The sole
purpose of the teacher is to guide the students in the art as correctly as possible. The
advancement of a teacher may change his belt color, however, in the Kita Kaze Bujutsu Kai all
belts worn by Sensei's are black. The dan ranks, however, if they are not recognized as teachers,
are considered instructors and not teachers. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
INSTRUCTORS AND TEACHERS WILL REFLECT IN THE DIFFERENCES
BETWEEN LEARNING KARATE-LIIUZ MOVEMENT AND LEARNING KARATE. If
a teaching title is awarded to a Yudansha (a dan grade) he is being honored for his ability to guide
students along the path of Karate.

In Japan or Okinawa, the instructor may warm up the class or instruct the general aspects
of either kata or technique. The instructor is expected to be on the floor at all times and to be
working as hard as the students are. The instructor is considered to be a teacher in training and
will always be under the scrutiny of a teacher.

The teacher is the guide in the art of karate. He must have a full understanding of the
mechanics of his art and is considered to be the philosophical leader. The teacher must be able to
inspire the student to sacr$ce his time and effort, often at the expense of his own personal life, in
order to bring the student to hller understanding of what it means to say, "I am a Karate student."

Section Six. GENERAL RULES OF ETIQUETTE
F Upon entering the Dojo, one should always bow to show one's respect for a place of
learning. This is called the Rei in Japanese. Before and after each class another Rei is performed
in order to instill respect for what you are about to do and what you have done. All students
should Rei to their seniors to show respect for the knowledge that the seniors possess. It is also
certainly true that all seniors should Rei to their juniors to show the respect that is due to anyone
who is struggling to learn a new and different endeavor. Remember, courtesy and a soft voice are
necessary to the smooth workings of a person's life. Uniforms should be clean, and neatly pressed,
and with out holes or tears. A students attitude may be reflected in the neatness of their uniform.
Uniforms should be properly folded after each class, unless that uniform is to be worn home. The
Obi (belt) should never be worn outside the Dojo, and if you wear your uniform to and fi-om the
Dojo, it is recommended that a shirt of some type be worn with the Gi bottoms when amving or

COUNTING IN JAPANESE

ICHI -- ONE NI -- TWO SAN --THREE


SHI -- FOUR GO -- FIVE ROKU -- SIX
SHICHI -- SEVEN HACHI -- EIGHT KU -- NINE
JU -- TEN
When pronouncing Japanese words, many of the syllables are silent. In the numbers, the
"I" at the end of ICHI, SHICM, HACHI are silent. Also, the "U" at the end of "ROKU" is silent.
In addition to being more correct, this allows for a more rhythmic counting style. Higher numbers
