Hi, I am new to the forum. I am a Karate practitionner with background in various other arts. I am presently aiming at looking deeper into Chito Ryu and to do it from a practical standpoint. I find it extremely important for Karate to retain its nature of self defense and not competition. I reside in the Ottawa, Ontario area and wish to have some sort of community or group of people who are interested in Karate (not specifically Chito Ryu) in that sense. I am looking for serious practice in bunkai as well as kake-kumite/Irikumi . Practicing with people from other style or Art gives one the opportunity to develop in a different way and explore their horizon even more. If you wish to share anything in that regards whether images, videos, events in the Ottawa area or an interest to train with me please do not hesitate to post or Dm me.
