Kenwa Mabuni (摩文仁 賢和, Mabuni Kenwa, 14 November 1889 - 23 May 1952) was one of the first karateka to teach karate in mainland Japan and is credited as developing the style known as Shitō-ryū. Mabuni chose Shito-ryu, the first characters of the names Itosu and Higaonna, his two primary teachers of Shuri-Te and Naha-Te.

水稽古 (Mizu Keiko), training in water, builds strength through resistance, sharpens technique by slowing every movement, and deepens breathing control while calming the mind. It is a practice that forges both body and spirit.

水稽古は技を鍛え、心を鎮める。
Mizu Keiko wa waza o kitae, kokoro o shizumeru.
“Water training forges technique and calms the mind.”

Whatever you train, Kata, Kumite, or any other areas, add kettlebells as supplementary work. They build strength and stability. Try it and feel the difference.
