ADLAWAN - HA
SHITO-RYU



There is no simple answer to this question. It is an art with many facets like an intricately cut precious stone. Self-defense is the unifying theme of Karate. All of the training techniques are designed to make the body strong and hard, reflexes quickened and the head, hands, fingers, elbows, knees and other parts of the body conditioned in techniques of defense and offense. The sole reason Karate is a defensive art is that because the blocking techniques are so highly developed, in an actual situation properly executed blocking techniques will painfully warn the opponent not to pursue his attack further.People who practice Karate place varying degrees of importance on becoming proficient. Some people train in order to maintain themselves in good physical condition. Karate training over a period of time will increase ones stamina, lower the heart rate, improve blood circulation, strengthen major body muscles, and eliminate excess weight. Training is vigorous enough to work up a healthy sweat. Yobi Undo (Karate Calisthenics) is designed to strengthen the body on one hand and improve flexibility on the other. Most persons will feel healthier when training regularly in Karate. Regular training is conducive to proper eating, deep sleep, and maintenance of body tone, litheness and agility. In addition to the physical demands, Karate requires one to improve his concentration. Some persons are attracted to Karate specifically because of the mental discipline required. Once a student understands the devastating power he can generate, he will avoid any argument, which might lead to physical conflict. With this in mind, he does not have to prove to anyone how strong or brave he is. This is why mental discipline is an important part of Karate training. He will become a suppler person, and will be able to cope with his environment and his every day life. Spiritually, Karate is closely linked to Zen. The training reflects the rigor and discipline of Zen. For whatever reason a person is originally attracted to Karate, they will find that Karate training is a multidimensional experience and if they maintain an active interest, they will, in time, become familiar with each of its facets.

MISSION STATMENT



The intent of our mission statement is to define the ideals of the founder of our organization, Sensei Bayani Adlawan. The aim of the organization is to teach the ideals of Karate-Do, which include self-discipline, rigorous training and the understanding that the object of Karate competition is not victory but the act of participation. Our goal is to provide a quality Karate training and experience at a reasonable cost that is available to people of all economic classes. To provide a framework so that Te-Kenjutsu-Kan instructors can donate their time and do not have to participate for profit. The organization will conduct a variety of fundraisers the proceeds of which will be made available to provide the students with a range of experiences that their economical status would normally not permit. The activities include participation in Karate tournaments both locally and at various out of town locations. Also included are yearly trips to the AAU tournament as well as bi-yearly weeklong trips to tournaments in Honolulu, Hawaii. Funds are also provided for a yearly scholarship for a deserving high school senior that is qualified and planning on attending college. Uniform standards will be established for promotion of Kyu and Dan ranks within the organization. All participants will be assured that they will be treated equally and not subjected to unfair practices not based upon their performance. All organization funds and property will be treated in a framework that will insure the security of the fund and property and that all distributions will occur in a fair and impartial manner.
