“Zen” the heart of Zendokai Karate

“Zen” is a school of Mahayanna Buddhism. This word “Zen” means “meditation”.
The aim of Zen practice is to discover the true nature within each person through meditation and mindfulness of daily experience, which will provide new perspective and insights on existence, which finally lead to enlightenment.

In Japan, there are many traditional arts that follow Zen philosophy such as

“KADO” = Japanese traditional flower arrangement,

“SADO” = Japanese traditional tea ceremony,

and “BUDO” = Japanese traditional martial arts and the spirit of Samurai.
It is the core of Zendokai Karate.

Zendokai believes that training in mind through meditation is as important as training body through karate practice.
