The mission of Sutemi Shukokai Karate Ryu is to engender martial artists with a spirit of mutual respect and purpose for all people regardless of age, sex, colour or creed.

Other goals include the following:

  • To host courses and seminars to provide expert instruction to all members.
  • To have a positive impact on club members by teaching them about the values of respect, courtesy and the self-confidence that comes from knowing how to protect oneself.
  • To provide a fair promotion system for all martial artists.
  • To be an organisation that is free of politics and egos.
  • To provide inspiration of personal excellence through our example as Black Belts both in and out of the dojo.

 

   

The Martial Arts cannot be practised as a form of entertainment or distraction. They are a serious undertaking that does not necessarily mean a sad one - far from it.

You cannot approach them tentatively with your fingertips, with a mere touch of the lips, or with superficial layers of thought or heart. It would be better never to become involved, but if you do, it is essential to carry on to the end, until one's being is regenerated to the point of being made man again - a real man.

As soon as your naked feet have entered a Dojo, you have entered forever. If you give up, if you waver, you risk finding yourself weaker than before. An important risk and a handicap that is difficult to compensate for.

He who seeks, finds. The genuine Masters do exist; I have known some very great ones during the past thirty years. The Art exudes such a message of beauty and truth from the East, I believe, an understanding which is new because it is timeless, to all those, and they are many, who are drawn and fascinated by the virile and knightly Way of Budo.
