Karate is a very old martial
art. The form that is taught
by Sensei Doug Avery at
Mayfair Training in Lucknow
is Gojo ryu, which is one of
the oldest Olcinowan forms
which originated off the
point of Japan.
Martial arts and weapons
had been banned in Japan.
Gojo ryu was developed as
unarmed combat against
armed attackers that was
hidden within dance with
the weapons used being
based on farm implements.
Participants train on Mon-
day and Thursday at Mayfair
Training. The young, ages
6-12, begin at 6:30 p.m. for
45 minutes. This level con-
centrates on the sport aspect
while touching on street
proofing. The ages 13+ ses-
sions includes teens and
adults training together,
however if the class grows
too large they will be split.
The focus in the older group
is on self defense.
Sensei Doug Avery has a
3rd degree black belt in Goju
ryu. He is also 1st degree in
Kyusho-Jutsu which involves
pressure points. The
Kyusho-Jutsu has more
advanced moves. Generally
