Something has brought you here,
be it you train in Shotokan and want to learn more about it ...
are bored with the style of karate you're already taking and wish to take a look at a different style ...
perhaps you have gotten the Karate bug after watching the latest martial arts movie ...
maybe the desire to get fit has taken you ...
or after hearing the latest stories on the news, you feel the need to learn self defense.
However your curiosity was piqued, it brought you to our site. So why not wander though our many pages and learn what the International Traditional Karate Institute (I.T.K.I.) is all about!
What we hope to provide here is a fun and invaluable educational resource for the experienced and inexperienced alike. We would like to guide one in learning the true differences between Traditional Shotokan Karate and other types of karate.
At our Dojo, we put our focus into training hard. We can back up every technique with actual kinetics, scientific proof of how and why the techniques work. Our method of training teaches the individual person how to train their own specific body type, allowing Traditional Shotokan to truly be accessible to all people. Men, women, children, seniors, those both with or without great physical abilities, even those with special challenges can effectively learn self defense though training in Traditional Shotokan Karate and all the while get fit, improve your awareness, relieve stress, and become more confident!
Thank you for visiting our site,
Kyoshi Armando R. Jemmott, Director
