Pechin Higa

Pechin Higa is a traditional Okinawan martial art that originated in Japan many years ago. It involves learning how to defend yourself using various techniques such as kicks, punches, and throws.

Think of it like learning how to play a game where you have to protect yourself from someone trying to tag you. Pechin Higa teaches you how to move your body in a certain way to protect yourself from someone trying to hit you.

In Pechin Higa, you will also learn how to use different weapons such as swords and staffs. These weapons are not used for attacking people, but rather for self-defense purposes only.

Practicing Pechin Higa can help improve your physical fitness and coordination, as well as teach you important life skills such as discipline, focus, and perseverance. It is important to always practice safely and under the guidance of a trained instructor.
