Karate-do "The Way of the Empty Hand"
What is Karate-do
Karate-do is more than a form of self defense. Karate-do is both an art and a science. Art because it strives for perfection of physical form and motion. Science because it is based upon physical and psychic principles understood in the Orient for centuries.
