Okinawa is a tiny island in the South China Sea. About one third the size of Rhode Island, it was an independent nation for centuries, known as the Ryukyu Kingdom.
Karate and Motobu Udundi were created by the Okinawan people by blending and adapting various fighting methods from China and Japan. Karate, in the last century, has become a household word around the world. Motobu Udundi, the unique art of the royal family, is little known beyond the shores of the island.
The Kodokai has enjoyed unique access to some of the finest teachers in the world.
