Goju-Ryu Karate is one of many of the original Okinawan Karate styles. Developed by Chojun
Miyagi Sensei, the style was influenced by both Chinese and Japanese Martial Arts styles. Miyagi chose
the name Goju (“go” meaning “hard” and “ju” meaning “soft”), to highlight that his style was composed
of both “hard” and “soft” styles.
