Please be aware that Hanshi approves virtual web-based trainings with audio and visual capability for your dojo members only in exceptional cases when meeting in your dojo is not allowed (such as the COVID-19 stay at home orders).
The following guidelines are to be followed for virtual trainings: Shihan or Renshi Dojo leaders must inform Hanshi Masako if you are planning to offer online trainings. You must provide a statement that you are not recording the session. Training is for your dojo members only. Training must not be recorded or made available to any dojo member who could not attend the real-time training. Kata must never be shared online.
Use technology that allows ONLY the host to invite dojo members to virtual trainings (no one can invite themselves to or attend the training). Use technology that does not allow participants to record the session under any circumstances.
Virtual trainings must always be done in the spirit of Doshinkan: Virtual trainings are only to be considered as a bridge to be able to continue with joint trainings in a limited way. Virtual trainings or joint trainings in the Dojo should not replace individual trainings. Virtual trainings in exceptional and justified cases should be used as one way to support members. Continue to use other options such as phone, email, etc. Virtual trainings should be designed to improve the ability of Dojo members to train on their own (e.g. by answering questions regarding Katas).
Kata are the treasure of Doshinkan and should therefore always be protected

H O N B U D O J O
Karatedo is a martial art that was born from the multicultural addition of the unique defense art of "hands" handed down from the time of the Ryukyu Kingdom in Okinawa.
We are deeply grateful to the legacy of our predecessors who have maintained the tradition of the first-generation system and the orthodox aspirations of Karatedo, and who have risked life and death to study Karatedo.
