Okinawa-Karate-Moerfelden


The website Okinawa-Karate-Moerfelden serves as a source of information for those interested in the subject of Shorin Ryu-Karate (少林流) and in particular the style Shorin Ryu Matsumura Kenpo (少林流松村拳法) which is taught in a small dojo (道場) in Moerfelden.

Basically today’s karate can be divided into Okinawan and Japanese styles. Historically, the Japanese styles are descended from the Okinawan styles and thus represent a modernized form of karate, which has its origin in Okinawa.

Mainly the Japanese styles are focused on competitions, meaning on the „competitive-sport aspect“, though there are exceptions. On the other hand the Okinawan styles are focused on the martial-arts, meaning on the „effective self-defense aspect“, the original objective of karate.

In the dojo in Moerfelden, Sensei Alexandros Kallidis teaches this original Okinawan karate. The training offer itself officially exists since 2019 in the form of the karate department at SKV Moerfelden.

Information about the training shedule and locations can be found on the official SKV website, everything about the Matsumura Kenpo style here on Okinawa-Karate-Moerfelden.
