Handmade exclusive calligraphy by Hokama Tetsuhiro Sensei. 

Shitō-ryū (糸東流) is a form of karate that was founded in 1934 by Kenwa Mabuni (摩文仁 賢和, Mabuni Kenwa).

A synthesis of various different Okinawan schools of martial arts, the Shitō-ryū is primarily practiced in Osaka. 

Mabuni derived the name for his new style from the first kanji character from the names of his two primary teachers, Itosu and Higaonna (also called Higashionna).
