NANBUDO is defined as an Art for the "creation of Ki energy", an energy, which permits the harmonious union between the body and the mind, for the total realisation of man.

Nanbudo draws its principles from natural laws, for the evidence of any great reality is in accord woth a scropulous respect for universal laws. So in Nanbudo the aim is to liberate man completly from his fears and anxietes, and to make him master of desires and passions. The aim is to help him not to stop at what is the first step in the perception of forms and realities.

This flow of energy leads to a physical and mental stability. It causes healing and prevents certain illnesses prevalent in modern times such as backaches, symptoms of stress etc.

"Nanbudo abolishes in essence all forms of extrovert strength" , resumes its founder Yoshinao Nanbu in his book "Nanbudo, the Martial Art for the 21^st Century". "However, it permits the acquisition of inner strength which is confirmed by a positive attitude in our daily lives. Nature speaks to us: let us address her, and especially imitate her."
