Kyokushin, an extremely hard style, involves breaking more often than the other styles and full contact, knockdown sparring as a main part of its training. Wado-ryu too employs shorter, more natural stances and the style is characterised by the emphasis on body shifting to avoid attacks. Shito-ryu, on the other hand, uses more upright stances and stresses speed rather than power in its long and middle range techniques. When it comes to individual karate styles Shotokan involves long, deep stances and powerful long range techniques. Shito-ryu can be regarded as a blend of Shuri and Naha traditions as its kata incorporate both Shuri and Naha kata.

Shuri karate is rather different from Naha karate, drawing on different predecessor influences. The first three of these styles find their origins in the Shorin-Ryu style from Shuri, Okinawa, while Goju-ryu finds its origins in Naha. The four earliest karate styles developed at Japan are Shotokan, Wado-ryu, Shito-ryu, and Goju-ryu most styles of Karate are derived from these four.
