The Shotokan Way.........

The Shotokan Way, is a useful and very interesting online monthly magazine for Karateka studying Shotokan Karate, which is produced by Shaun Banfield and Emma Robins.
By its very nature, this unique resource is free to access, however donations are welcomed by the team to support the great effort that they themselves have put into this huge project.
I have personally found the interviews with senior Karateka most interesting, but also the site has articles on topics that are relevant to your training, which aim to answer your questions away from the dojo.
Below is an extract from their mission statement:

The Shotokan Way is an Online Shotokan Karate Magazine and Research Centre dedicated to Shotokan Karate. It’s a project committed to the students of Shotokan Karate throughout the world, and is devoted to enabling Shotokan Karateka to cast opinions, views and ideas freely; without the restraints of any political bias.

Everyone is equal, and everyone deserves the opportunity to express an opinion and we hope to provide an environment where this is encouraged.

All of our resources are free. Everything that we offer comes without any price tag, as our objective is to provide a resource beneficial to the Shotokan Karateka, and that is reward enough. We have and will continue to stress that the resources here are to support dojo training, rather than replace it, and the only way this resource will benefit Karateka is if they take the ideas, information, and understanding from TSW and use it in their study.

We hope you enjoy The Shotokan Way, and benefit from our resources. The only way we will grow and be more beneficial is if others contribute. If you’ve any anything you would like published on the site, please do not hesitate, and we look forward to a long friendship with all of our viewers.

Thank you so very much, and good luck in your study.

Many thanks to Shaun and Emma for investing their time in producing this great publication.
