Long ago the art of self-defense called "te" (which means hand) existed in Okinawa, the small southernmost island of Japan. The actual roots of karate are not clearly known, but because Japan, and especially Okinawa, was close to China and frequently traded with it, it is probable that the Okinawan people were strongly influenced by China when developing their own martial art. Karate ( pronounced kah-rah-tay ) is a Japanese word that means "the way of the empty hand." This refers to the karate-ka's (student of karate ) ability to defend him / herself without the use of weapons.
