Grand Master Narikawa immobilizeded the arsonist while the injured police officer regained his footing to make the arrest.

The philosophical foundation of Grand Master Narikawa's traditional Karate teachings has survived and are characterized by a moral code of behavior, both in and out of the Dōjō. The essence of this code of behavior is captured in the Japanese term “reigi.” Translated into English this word carries the meaning of the concepts of Courtesy, Manners, and Respect. Students of Karate are to learn to use their bodies as weapons; it is imperative for the students (and Instructors) to understand the tremendous responsibility that comes with such knowledge. There is a moral imperative to use this knowledge correctly and responsibly for their own development and for the moral development of the people with whom they come into contact with.
