Description
Shuri-te was a pre-World War II term for the indigenous martial art tradition
of the Shuri region of Okinawa, the old capital of the Ryukyu Kingdom.
Associated teachers include Sakugawa Kanga, Matsumura Sokon, Itosu Anko, and
Funakoshi Gichin. It is one of the three regional Okinawan te traditions -
alongside Naha-te and Tomari-te - from which modern karate styles descended; its
direct successors include Shotokan, Shito-ryu, and Shorin-ryu.
