"The ultimate aim
of
Karate,
Lies not in victory
or defeat,
|
Chito Ryu was created by Dr. Tsuyoshi Chitose. By combining two
styles of Okinawan martial art, soft (Shurino-te) and hard (Nahano-te),
Dr. Chitose developed Chito-Ryu based on the knowledge of human anatomy &
physiology.
The Chito-Ryu philosophy (showa)
is:

|
but in the perfection of
the character of
its participants." |
The goal of the East Hants
Karate Club is to encourage our members to reach their potential as
individuals, to develop life skills which can be used inside & outside of
the dojo, to meet daily challenges with self-confidence and respect for
others. Established in 1976, the East Hants Karate Club is the
oldest Karate Club in the Municipality of East
Hants. |
