Joslin Dojos

Thirty two years ago Dave and Ron Joslin opened their first Karate Dojo.

The date was Saturday, November 5th, 1977.

They have created a great tradition that continues to thrive.

I am proud to consider myself one of their students.

Seisan Stance Power

The power of Seisan Stance requires that the toes are pointing straight ahead.

I noticed that a slight lateral rotation of the lead foot gives you the ability to flow/pivot to the side when resistance is applied; trading strength and power for mobility.

Note: Sensei Bennati says he uses a slight pigeon toe.

No First Strike

There is no first strike in Karate.

What does this mean?
