Detail: Shotokan Karate is highly respected as one of the best systems of traditional karate in the world. Originally developed in China , the technique of karate spread from Okinawa to Japan in the early 18th century as a self-defense martial art called "Budo." It was in Japan that karate became the systemized form of martial art as we know it today. Its popularity is credited to Master Gichin Funakoshi (1868-1957), who brought the art from Okinawa to Japan . Master Funakoshi is often referred to as “The father of modern karate.” Shoto means "pine waves", while kan means "streams" or styles. Shoto was the pen name of Gichin Funakoshi's. Loosely translated, Shotokan means the style of Funakoshi, as opposed to other styles. The practice in Shotokan is based on the premise "ikken hisatsu", or a single blow must decide all.
