Shito Kai
Shito Kai is a distinguished branch of Shito Ryu karate, founded by Kenwa Mabuni in Japan during the early 20th century. Mabuni, a student of renowned masters Anko Itosu and Kanryo Higaonna, synthesized elements of both Shuri-te and Naha-te styles to create a comprehensive system known for its versatility in both linear and circular techniques. Established after Mabuni’s death in 1952, Shito Kai has played a pivotal role in preserving and promoting Shito Ryu’s traditional forms and philosophy, upholding karate as both a physical and spiritual discipline recognized worldwide.
