Biggest Hits

Here are the biggest hits from 2016 SA JKA National Championships. This is always a well-organized prestigious event with around 3 000 entries taking place at the Standard Bank Arena in Johannesburg. Young, old, junior and senior compete with great spirit.

The Essence of SA JKA Shotokan Karate

JKA Shotokan is symbolised by two circles: a large circle representing the sky against which is a smaller red circle, representing the sun, is superimposed.

SOUND MIND / GOOD TECHNIQUE

Like the two interacting circles which represent JKA Shotokan Karate, JKA Shotokan Karate has developed and continued to grow into two crucial factors, namely:

Sound Mind
Good Technique
As Nakayama Sensei (Instructor) once told the writer when he asked him why the Five Maxims of Karate are important, he answered:

Self-defence is not only a physical thing. Sound mental strategies and attitudes are of far greater importance when it comes to protecing once’s self, one’s family and one’s nation. For example it is hard to hit somebody who offers you genuine respect (the 4th maximums)

Pinetown JKA did exceptionally well in this tournament. Well done to everyone.
