Our History
Report
Shi Kon Martial Arts was established in 1988 By Steve Rowe and named by his Iaido Instructor Okimitsu Fuji who drew the calligraphy that hangs in the Chatham Honbu Dojo. Shi Kon means 'Warrior Spirit' being the spirit or heart of a cultured Samurai warrior.
Shi Kon is the coming together of Steve's training in Karate under the late Toru Takimazawa (he was the Chairman of the Takamizawa Institute of Karate), his Tai Chi training under James Uglow and Ma Lee Yang, his Iaido training under Okimitsu Fuji and Vic Cook and his Jodo training with Vic Cook.

The Training System
Report
It's important to understand the depth, structure and synergy of the system you train in. With many 'traditional' training systems because of the lack of documentation and information we end up guessing what the founders of the system who have long departed this world thought. We also end up trying to understand any documentation and oral tradition through the near impossible cultural filter and language of the source Country.

Tai Chi
Report
Tai Chi is a form of exercise and moving meditation developed in ancient China that has been practiced for centuries as a therapeutic, healing routine. Its mindful movements are the perfect antidote to the stresses and anxieties of our busy modern lives. Instead of jarring, high-intensity exercises, Tai Chi uses low-impact, slow moving, naturally flowing movements that are done softly and thoughtfully.
