Description
Shotokan Karate-do is founded on a tradition which seeks to fulfill three primary objectives apart from self-defense. First is the promotion of good health and vitality. This is achieved by improving one�s aerobic fitness, coordination, strength, flexibility, and reflexes. Second, develop an appreciation for the Budo (Martial Art) culture, etiquette and philosophy. Third, the training in karate is used as a vehicle to inspire personal excellence and strives to cultivate one�s character by valuing such traits as courtesy, respect and humility. The student who perseveres will develop courage, self-control, and self-discipline. If these three objectives are kept in view Karate-Do becomes a healthy learning process and an excellent means of prolonging ones life by keeping physically fit. P/NP only. May be repeated for credit. Additional course information for fall 2020.
