  • Yeah I like this video that's shows martial arts styles!!!!!

  • i agree with most you said... except if you want to be talking about the "traditional japanese budo" (wasnt aware there was unjapanese budo ;) )

    you should be using the ancient names for the ryu, not the sport names....

    that is to say, jūjutsu kenjutsu, aikijutsu....

    judo, and aiki are both bad examples of "traditional" since they are both extremely young sports...

    you also used kobudo wrong...

    it literally means "old martial art" so as a name of a style it doesnt quite fit...

  • Karate was born in Okinawa but popularized by Japan worldwide. The Ryukyu group of islands where Okinawa is located belong to Japan territory. Karate-do is one of the main traditional japanese martial arts today, along with Kendo, Judo, Kyudo, Kobudo, Sumo, Yodo, Yabusame, Aikido, Iaido and Battodo.

  • In fact Okinawa belongs to Japan. The group os islands known as RyuKyu are part of the Japanese country and Karate was spread throughout Japan by Okinawan masters, though the art was created in Okinawa. Karate is mainly known worlwide as Japanese and is part of the main traditional Japanese Budo (Martial Arts). Also Judo, Kendo, Aikido, Kyudo, Kobudo, Iaido, Jodo and Sumo.
