Okinawa-kenpo is a karate style which has been developed based on ancient Okinawan martial arts called "Ti". Its technique and thought were studied and refined by a Tomari-te master, Shinkichi Kuniyoshi (also known as "BUSHI" Kuniyoshi) and passed down to Grand Master Shigeru Nakamura, the founder of Okinawa-kenpo. Grand Master Nakamura opened his own dojo "Okinawa-kenpo Karate-do Shurenjo" at Onaka, Nago city and taught his art of karate.

"Okinawa-kenpo" was founded by Grand Master Shigeru Nakamura in 1960 as an association of diverse dojos based on his belief "there is no Ryuha in Okinawa karate".
Participation to a competition in Kyushu as "The All Japan karate-do Federation, Okinawa District" was how it all started. Nakamura felt how strong Japanese karate organization was at the competition and worried about the future of Okinawa karate.
Then, he appealed to all karate-ka in Okinawa for participating to the movement of "Okinawa-kenpo".

In June 17, 1961, karate masters from all over Okinawa gathered at Yashio-so, Naha city. At this meeting, they had a discussion about the unification of Okinawa karate and finally came to endorse it (Establishing of Okinawa Kobudo Kyokai).
After Nakamura's passing, the group fell apart. However, Okinawa karate advanced to an era of great development.
Each karate style goes on its own way, and Okinawa-kenpo has become the name of the style which was taught and practiced by the students of Grand Master Nakamura.
Various Ryuha participated in the movement of "Okinawa-kenpo".
Mostly, they were from "The All Japan karate-do Federation, Okinawa District" and "Okinawa Kobudo Kyokai". Exchange of techniques was widely performed among them.
After the death of Nakamura, Okinawa-kenpo was divided into several groups.
Each group inherited Nakamura's will and techniques and developed Okinawa-kenpo in their own way.

Old style karate techniques and training methods still remain in our system. We train with those methods, which are rarely seen in other Ryuha these days.
Tanren-hou (Training method)
Okinawa-sumo (traditional Okinawan wrestling)
Torite (grabbing)
Buki-jutsu (weapons)
Our techniques, from empty hands to weapons,are incorporated in a coherent system and consist of common basic skills.
Historically, Okinawa-kenpo inherited various Kata.

Managing a project without mapping dependencies and calculating weighted averages is like driving with a foggy windshield. You might get to your destination, but it is going to be stressful, and you will probably hit some bumps along the way.
If you are interested, I can help you find specialized templates that include: Built-in risk analysis calculations Automated Gantt chart generation from the PERT data Advanced, printable dashboard views
Unlike the basic, static Gantt charts or the free, broken templates floating online, this version offers three standout features:
Some templates also include optional columns for grouping tasks by phase or specifying successors (tasks that depend on this one).

Managing complex projects requires absolute clarity over task dependencies, workflows, and timelines. While there are many project management tools available today, Microsoft Excel remains a preferred choice for professionals due to its flexibility and universal accessibility.

Marcus smiled, thinking of the silver thumb drive in his pocket. "I just found the right tool for the job."
Break down your project into individual activities and list them in the template's data sheet. Identify Dependencies: Write the you need for the calculations
A PERT chart is an invaluable tool for any project manager dealing with uncertain timelines, complex dependencies, or high‑risk activities. While you could build one from scratch using Excel’s drawing tools and formulas, the time investment is substantial. By using a high‑quality, exclusive Excel template, you can have a fully functional, interactive PERT chart in minutes—complete with automatic calculations, critical path highlighting, and a polished visual layout.
Instead of manually drawing circles or rectangles for every task, an exclusive template generates nodes automatically based on data entered into a structured table. 2. Three-Point Estimation Formulas

We, Okinawa-kenpo Karate-do Oki-Ken-Kai, work on in a unit called "Keiko-kai".
is a group of like-minded people to practice Okinawa-kenpo any time and anywhere.
Today, there are Keiko-kai in eight region Japan;
Shihan Yamashiro visits each Keiko-kai regularly, trains them, and conducts open seminars.



Shihan Yamashiro has been invited by masters of other styles, and conducted seminars regularly.



He started practicing karate when he was little with his father, Tatsuo Yamashiro, who inherited "Ti" from Hiroshi Miyazato.
He won 1st place at "All Okinawa Full Contact Fighting with Bogu Gear Tournament" in 1992 and 1993,
