History of Gojo Ryu Karate

Filed Under Relish Random 

      Gojo Ryu Karate is a Karate technique known for its purity if form and lineage. It is one of the few styles of Karate that has not been diluted or embellished over the years. Gojo Ryu is one of the original four styles of Karate from Okinawa and has been carefully passed from one teacher to the other, keeping the techniques pure. Gojo Ryu is very effective even today and, while not a sport form of Karate, is an excellent and practical self-defense technique.

      Gojo Ryu, literally translated, means “hard / soft school.” In Gojo Ryo, the basic philosophy is simple: the soft can be as dangerous as the hard and the hard can be as ineffective as the soft. In other words, practitioners of Gojo Ryu counter hard strikes with soft blows or even deflective motions. When attacking, the process is the same, striking at hard targets with soft blows and soft targets with hard blows. For example, using the heel of the palm (called a palm heel strike) to hit the head or a kick to the groin. This form of Karate is also known for very quick, strong counter-strikes and linear and circular movements.

      The Hard versus Soft philosophy is also seen in the actual training of Gojo Ryu practitioners. The training itself is seen as “hard.” It focuses on fighting techniques that are used to strengthen the muscular system as well as enhance the circulation and respiratory systems. Conversely, the “soft” part of the training focuses on internal processes of the body. Gojo Ryu’s soft training uses meditation, focuses breathing, and internal exercises to keep the organs functioning at peak levels.
