Torakan Shotokan Karate-do

 

"TORAKAN (School of the Tiger) is my way of training: a traditional, classical Karate, but with an understanding of the shortfalls of that art in the cold, hard reality of today's world, and combined with a loving philosophy:
Humility - Self-discipline - Self-confidence - Self-knowledge - Self-love - Self-respect - Respect for others - Unity of mind and body, thought and deed, body and spirit."

 

Torakan Founder & Shihan Thomas McKinnon
