Welcome

This is the website of Ernest J Estrada who is a practitioner of the Okinawan art of Shorinryu Karatedoh and Ryukyu Kobudoh. Included on the site are some of my thoughts and experiences in the practice of Okinawan karatedoh and kobudoh - beginning with my judo years for 1957 to 1960. This is followed by my karate years ( 1960 to the present ) and my kobudoh years ( 1963 to present ). I hope that you enjoy my writings and ramblings!
