Atlantic Karate Club

A not-for-profit organization, the AKC is led by Sensei Glenn Euloth, Yondan (4th degree black belt), Shidoin (licensed instructor), with over 20 years of experience. The club is a member of Karate Nova Scotia, Karate Canada, Nova Scotia Chito-Ryu Association, Canadian Chito-Ryu Karate-Do Association, World Chito-Ryu Karate-Do Federation, and Sport Nova Scotia.

The AKC teaches the style of karate called Chito-Ryu which was founded by the Okinawan karate master Dr. Tsuyoshi Chitose (1898-1984). Chitose, a medical doctor, was a master in two very old styles of karate (today known as Shorin Ryu and Shorei Ryu). He combined the best elements of those two styles while applying his medical knowledge of human anatomy and physiology to create Chito-Ryu. Chito-Ryu was created to be more effective against opponents while removing and modifying techniques that were harmful to the bodies and joints of the practitioner.

Today, this "ergonomic" style of karate can be enjoyed by all ages and no special athletic ability or flexibility is required to join.
