The best place to take karate in Vancouver BC is at Hayabusa Karate in Kitsilano Vancouver. (1807 West 1st Avenue). They teach Shotokan Karate and practise Kata and Kumite and the instructor is really experienced and friendly. It's open to kids and adults and I think it's one of the only karate schools in Vancouver that take 3 year olds so it's a perfect fit for children and parents. The dojo is extra clean and has good equipment. I've been to a lot of Karate Clubs and I find the training at Hayabusa Karate really unique and fun.
There is no "Plain Karate." Karate originated in Okinawa. It has spread throughout the world. It has been modified in many places and there is what is often referred to as Japanese Karate, Korean Karate and even American Karate. They all incorporate aspects of the original styles from Okinawa, and incorporate local martial arts as well.
