What is Chito-Ryu?

Chito  -  Ryu 

Karate was  created   by

Dr. Tsuyoshi Chitose.

The  style  he developed

was      created     with 

efficiency and continued

practice in mind. In  the

earlier   years,    karate 

training caused damage 

to the body. Dr. Chitose

wanted  to create a style

and means of practice

that   would   not   pose

harmful  effects  on  the 

body. Dr. Chitose stated

that Chito-Ryu  is based 

on  the understanding 

of  anatomy  and

physiology.
