About Don
Kodokan-Seiler Dojo is dedicated to the promotion of Matsubayashi-ryu karate as handed down by the late Soke Takayoshi Nagamine. Matsubayashi-ryu karate is an Okinawan martial art with a long history and tradition.
Practice in tradition is the foundation of this style of karate, rather than a display for tournament. The chief instructor is Don Seiler, Sensei who is dedicated to carefully passing the knowledge of karate-do to his students. In contrast to the many options available for combat sports, we do not train individuals for sporting competition. Rather, we focus on instruction in the history and principles of Okinawan Karate-do, as a part of Okinawan culture, and the applicability of those principles in a life pursuing wellness and peace. This is done through instruction in the physical techniques of Matsubayashi-ryu as found in kata, bunkai (applications) and kumite (a type of sparring, but in the context of personal defense - NOT sport). In addition, we engage in physical conditioning using Okinawan Hojo Undo (traditional body conditioning tools and exercises) and modern methods (weights, high intensity intervals, cognitive/ neurological conditioning). The final component is mental training for personal wellness and training effectiveness. This includes Zazen sitting and other mental focus training methods. The results are improved health, fitness, mental wellness and skill in empty-hand personal defense.
Kata is the Center of Training in Traditional Okinawan Karate-do. Kata is a prearranged set of movements that embody a set of fundamental offensive and defensive techniques. Each kata focuses on a particular fighting style or strategy. This strategy is intertwined in the stances, direction changes, blocks, and strikes included in the kata.
Proficiency in Karate-do is developed by merging one’s natural instincts and physical attributes with physiologically efficient and effective technique. Kata is the means for developing efficient and effective technique by focusing on proper stance, balance, atemi (focus), and self-awareness in the context of self-defense applications.
32+ years training in traditional martial arts with the last 22 years focused on Matsubayashi-ryu Karate-do including direct training in Okinawa under multiple masters of the style.
