Im not so much a hardcore fan...but I do know Mikio Yahara is one of the best Shotokan fighters in the world he is a tenth dan... but he is old as s**t...He is the modern day mr miyagi

No, Shotokan is Japanese, but Funakoshi, the founder, is Okinawan. As for my style, I'm a gokyu in Goju ryu.

Another one. My school used to teach Japanese Goju ryu from Gogen Yamaguchi but my instructor went to Okinawa for several years and started teaching Okinawan Goju ryu that was directly linked to Chojun Miyagi.

Actually, the basic system that is now Shotokan was in Okinawa til Funakoshi's son formulated it into the style we know it as by giving it a "Japanese" touch to it.
