2日目は空手の体験を通して地元の皆様と国際交流をするうえで欠かせない日本の挨拶や簡単な日常会話、マナーを学びます。午後は飲める水が湧いている泉や、美しいコバルトブルーの海を散策し、自然環境の大切さ、感謝、尊敬の念を指導し、SDGS等持続可能な開発目標を意識させます。

On the second day, you will learn Japanese greetings, simple daily conversations, and manners that are essential for international exchange with local people through a karate experience. In the afternoon, we will take a walk around the springs with drinkable water and the beautiful cobalt blue ocean, teaching the importance of gratitude and respect for the natural environment to children and making them aware of sustainable development goals such as the SDGS.

3日目は空手の組手を通して、パートナーと相対して空手の技を学ぶことで間合い、角度、タイミング、呼吸等を体で学び、人種、宗教、国境を越えたコミュニケーションを身に付けます。午後は体験乗馬（ホースヒーリング）や自然農体験を通して、動物やほかの生き物の有難さを考え、農業や国境を越えて料理を紹介したり、一緒に作ることで食の有難さ、医食同源など健康維持に対する気付きを促します。（食育）

On the third day, through karate kumite, you will learn karate techniques face-to-face with a partner, understanding distance, angles, timing, breathing, etc., with your body and acquiring communication skills that transcend race, religion, and national borders. In the afternoon, we will contemplate the gratitude for animals and other living things through horseback riding and natural farming experiences. We will introduce agriculture and cuisine that transcend borders, and by cooking together, we will promote awareness of health maintenance, such as understanding energy sources (food education).

4日目は久高島に奉納演武へ訪れ、神の島で祈りの大切さ、平和の有難さ御嶽回りや奉納演武を通して、日本の神道の考えや子孫繁栄、離島の状況を肌で感じていただきます。午後も島内を散策し、日常の生活から離れ自分自身と見つめ合えるようゆっくりとした時間を過ごしていただきます。

On the fourth day, the participants will visit Kudaka Island for a dedication demonstration, where they will learn firsthand the importance of prayer and the gratitude for peace on the island of the gods. Through the Utaki tour and dedication demonstration, participants will be able to experience firsthand the concepts of Japanese Shinto, the prosperity of descendants, and the situation on remote islands. In the afternoon, we will take a leisurely walk around the island to provide a relaxing break from everyday busy life and an opportunity for self-reflection.

5日目は形の稽古を通じて、自己研鑽、日常の運動不足解消などの方法を学び、また先人から受け継いできたことを再認識していきます。午後は自国で待っている家族や友人、先生のために旅行のお土産を買いに、南城市物産館、または国際通りなど散策します。また空手、座禅や書道を通して精神と肉体のバランスを整え日本文化を体験してもらい、また自己の生活を整えるためのアドバイスにして欲しいです。

On the fifth day, through Kata practice, we will focus on self-improvement, addressing the lack of daily exercise and reaffirming what we have inherited from our predecessors. In the afternoon, participants will have the chance to stroll around the Nanjo City Product Center or Kokusai Street to purchase souvenirs for their family, friends, and teachers waiting for them in their home country. Additionally, they will engage in activities like karate, zazen, and calligraphy to experience Japanese culture and receive guidance on how to organize their own lives.

6日目は投げ技や、関節技、武器の特徴を学ぶことで空手の歴史の理解をより深め、また護身術としても防犯の一助として習得していただきたいです。

研修参加の認定証を授与して、研修を終了します。

On the 6th day, we hope you will deepen your understanding of the history of karate by learning throwing techniques, joint techniques, and the characteristics of weapons. We also hope that you will learn it as a self-defense technique and as a means of crime prevention.

The training will conclude with a certificate of participation.

このような6日間の空手文化交流体験研修を通して、琉球空手が王家の嗜みであったように、未来を背負う青少年またご両親、家族などより多くの国からグループで参加していただき、困難な世界でも「生き延びる術」を学んでいただきたいと思います。

Through this 6-day karate cultural exchange experience training program, we aim to encourage young people, their parents, and families to participate in groups from as many countries as possible, even in a challenging world. We want them to learn how to thrive and adapt.
