SHUTO-KAI ELITE KARATE CLUB…
[The Harder The Obstacles, The Greater The Reward]
The Japan Karate Association (JKA) is the world’s largest and most prestigious, non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and promoting traditional Shotokan karate. Founded in 1948 in Tokyo, it emphasizes the development of mind and body through kihon (basics), kata (forms), and kumite (sparring), rooted in Bushido principles.
The JKA is considered the “keeper” of modern karate, maintaining the direct lineage of its founder, Funakoshi Gichin.
