Welcome to the U.B.C. Shotokan Karate Home Page.
We are one of the oldest martial arts groups on campus.
We practice an orthodox form of martial arts called
Shotokan Karate-Do. Kara means empty
and te means hand. Karate developed as
a weaponless form of self-defense. Shotokan karate
stresses mental and physical development.
Do literally means the way, so
karate-do translates to the way of karate.
This means that if one practices seriously, karate can
become not only an effective form of self-defense, but
also a way of life.
