From their website:

What Is Qi Kwan Do?

A martial art and practical self-defence system

It’s perhaps the most practical and true self-defence system ever devised. Most street attacks are sudden and violent in their nature and there is little time for conscious thought or margin for error. Students learn to react automatically with conditioned responses that are rapid, accurate and executed without hesitation.

Every Technique in Qi Kwan Do is based on realistic self defence, in a real fight situation and to knock an opponent down in one strike. Some of the Qi Kwan Do techniques may not look as flashy as seen in the movies but they are all carefully designed and structured to be practical for people at any age and are realistic self defence tecniques.

Master Parisi has devised Qi Kwan Do based on three concepts:

  • Movements must be natural, easy to learn and easy to remember;
  • Movements must flow, with a circular motion in every punch and kick that uses the body’s movement to focus energy;
  • Movements must be practiced repeatedly under gradually more realistic conditions.

Qi Kwan Do movements differ from those of other martial arts as it uses:

  • Defensive stances , which are better for mobility and the ability to put body weight into a movement for optimum power
  • Economy of motion , which is achieved by keeping the hands up in a defensive position, not on the hip or crossed;
  • Flowing movements , so that all Qi Kwan Do movements flow into one another naturally without wasted motion.

Qi Kwan Do is all about the Martial Art and Self Defence Programme

  • NO Politics
  • NO Greed
  • NO Ego’s
  • NO Lies

Karate Clubs in Peterborough

Karate: This is perhaps the most popular martial art in Japan and here in the West.
Karate is a soldierly art developed in the Ryukyu Islands [Okinawa] and has from original fighting methods and Chinese kenpo, several sub-styles including Shotokan, Shotokai and Wado Ryu. It is primarily a striking art using punching, kicking, knee and elbow strikes and open-handed techniques such as knife-hands and ridge-hands. Grappling, locks, restraints, throws, and vital point strikes are taught in some styles. A karate practitioner is called a karateka.
Karate began as a fighting system known as “ti” (or “te”) among the pechin class of the Ryukyuans. After trade relationships were established with the Ming dynasty of China by Chuzan King Satto in 1372, many forms of Chinese martial arts were introduced to the Ryukyu Islands by the visitors from China, particularly Fujian Province. A group of 36 Chinese families moved to Okinawa around 1392 for the purpose of cultural exchange and shared their knowledge of the Chinese martial arts. The political centralization of Okinawa by King Shohashi in 1429 and the ‘Policy of Banning Weapons,’ enforced in Okinawa after the invasion of the Shimazu clan in 1609, are also factors that furthered the development of unarmed combat techniques in Okinawa.

Karate can be practiced as budo, as a sport, as a combat sport, or as self defense training. Traditional karate places emphasis on self development (budo). Modern Japanese style training emphasizes the psychological elements incorporated into a proper kokoro (attitude) such as perseverance, fearlessness, virtue, and leadership skills. Sport karate places emphasis on exercise and competition.
Weapons (kobudo) is important training activity in some styles.

Karate training is commonly divided into kihon (basics or fundamentals), kata (forms), and kumite (sparring). Karate styles place varying importance on kihon. Typically this is performance in unison of a technique or a combination of techniques by a group of karateka. Kihon may also be prearranged drills in smaller groups or in pairs. Kata means literally “shape” or “model.” Kata is a formalized sequence of movements which represent various attack and defense postures. These postures are based on idealized combat applications.
Karate in the United Kingdom

In the 1950s and 1960s, several Japanese karate masters began to teach the art in the United Kingdom. In 1965, Tatsuo Suzuki began teaching Wado-ryu in London. In 1966, members of the former British Karate Federation established the Karate Union of Great Britain (KUGB) under Hirokazu Kanazawa as chief instructor and affiliated to JKA. Keinosuke Enoeda came to England at the same time as Kanazawa, teaching at a dojo in Liverpool. Kanazawa left the UK after 3 years and Enoeda took over. After Enoeda’s death in 2003, the KUGB elected Andy Sherry as Chief Instructor. Shortly after this, a new association split off from KUGB, JKA England.
