SUKUNAIHAYASHI-RYU : Few forest style.

The uninterrupted circle: To protect and uphold the honor of Seibukan Dojo and the ways of Karate.

The heavy broken circle: Represents two opposing forces.

The four small arrow heads: Represents Sensei Zenryo Shimabukuro and your Sensei extending their hands between the two opposing forces to maintain peace.

The large arrow on bottom: Points to the character “Bu”, but also means shield. Knights used a shield as a protective device, so should Karate be taught and practiced.

Shape of patch: Round like the full moon to signify Peace of mind, tranquility and romance at heart.

Color: Black -  Signifies the mysterious darkness of night.

          Yellow -  Signifies Serenity.
