Naha-te is a traditional style of Okinawan karate that originated in the city of Naha, Okinawa. It emphasizes powerful, linear movements and practical self-defense techniques. Practitioners focus on developing strong stances, effective strikes, and fluid transitions between techniques. This martial art is one of the three main styles of Okinawan karate, alongside Shuri-te and Tomari-te. Naha-te is known for its incorporation of breathing techniques and the use of kata, which are pre-arranged forms that help students practice and refine their skills.
