Manzo Iwata 岩田万蔵

Manzo Iwata – A Master of Precision, Tradition, and Budō Philosophy

February 9, 1924 – June 4, 1993

Master Manzo Iwata was born on February 9, 1924, in Takinogawa, Kita-ku, Tokyo, as the second son of the Iwata family, proprietors of the “Iwataen” tea wholesale store. From an early age, Iwata was drawn to martial arts, beginning his training in Judo, Kendo, and Aikido around 1930. However, it was in the early 1940s that his interest in Karatedō began to blossom.
In 1941, Iwata enrolled at Toyo University, where he joined the university’s Karate Club. There, he had the pivotal experience of encountering Sensei Kenwa Mabuni, the founder of Shitō-ryū Karatedō. During this period, he also studied the traditional Jojutsu (staff techniques) of the Daien-ryū (大円流) Jojutsu lineage under Sensei Seiko Fujita, the 14th-generation master of Kōga-ryū Ninjutsu—the famed ninja tradition of feudal Japan....

Shitō-ryū Shinzui (糸東流 神髄)

"The Essence and Core of Shitō-ryū" implies a focus on the most profound principles, techniques, tactics and philosophy of the Shitō-ryū system—not merely surface-level practice, but a deep understanding of the true nature, technical precision, meaningful application, and spirit behind the art.

Aragaki ha Unshu

Unshu (雲手), literally “cloud hands”, It contains many intricate hand techniques, such as the Ippon Nukite (one finger strike) in the opening sequence. Unshu was created by Seisho Aragaki sometime around 1860-1870. Aragaki was a Japanese and Chinese language interpreter to the Shuri court, and a master of monk fist and white crane styles. It is somewhat a condensation of other katas (e.g., Bassai, Kosokun, Jion, Wanshu, Jitte, Chinto and Niseishi), hence it is essential to have mastered these before practicing Unshu.
