By teaching karate in schools Itosu changed his karate to make it suitable for children to
learn, you can’t teach children to attack eyes and the groin and so his precepts

There are two routes to this one i’ll go with what i think is easiest. From 'Shiritsu Byoin Mae'
monorail station walk up to the big junction with a Lawson on the left
hand side. Turn right (taking the road opposite lawson). Walk straight until you see a
Mcdonalds on the right hand side and a mos burger next to it (this may take around
20 minutes from the station). Take the right hand turn between the two buildings
and then take the first right around the back of the Moss Burger.
