I started Isshinryu in 1983, and we did seminars with board breaking all the time. My idiot Sensei at the time didn't teach us how to properly do it, and my hands pay for it to this day..... It's a good thing she didn't expect us to use OUR heads! (Yes, SHE!)

The patch or crest worn by Isshinryu karateka often raises admiration and curiosity. The patch is based on a day dream Tatsuo Shimabuku had in the fifties while he was creating his karate style. This dream was the missing piece in the puzzle called Isshinryu. The patch is often incorrectly called Mizu Gami, which means 'water goddess'. Originally the Isshinryu emblem was called 'Isshinryu No Megami', which means 'Goddess of Isshinryu'. The goddess is the Goddess of Isshinryu karate and not the goddess of water.
