Very interesting. I know that karate came to japan only in the beginning of the 20th century. Did you know that?
I have never taken it myself. I know it comes from Japan. It originated there in the early 20th century.
I love karate. I took it earlier when I was younger.
Karate was brought to Japan in the early 20th century during a time of migration as Ryukyuans, especially from Okinawa, looked for work in Japan.
