ive started with shotokan after doing all kinds of styles and now im training to have no style. But im glad i did shotokan cuz it gave me elusivness, avoiding, mobility, counter and speed.
while i do not train in this specific form of the arts, i extend my respect and admiration. it is wonderful to see such disciplines being preserved and practiced with both skill and a sense of history. without such things the true spirit would be lost. perhaps it is because i now grow old, but i worry that the young artists and fighters of today are losing sight of the past to their great loss. to see disrespect in events such as the ufc, or karate tournaments is saddening to me. oss!
@MrByaeger I'm with the KUGB (Shotokan) 7th kyu but devoted. The organisation is very much driven to preserve Karate for what I believe it is - a killing art and way of life. Sport is vein and removes the practicality of the art. oss!

Very nice description on the right! The first goal of Karaté is to train the Karatéka's mind and spirit.
