	The History of Uechi Ryu- Kanbun Uechi
		Some believe Kanbun Uechi was born in Izumi on the Motobu Peninsula, and that he moved to the tiny mountain village of Takinto at three or four years old.
		However, evidence clearly indicates that Kanbun's parents, Kantoku and Tsuru Uechi, had already moved to Takinto and it was in the mountain top village that Kanbun was born on May 5, 1877.
		Kanbun's keen interest in karate and social objections to serving in the Japanese army provoked his decision to leave Okinawa.
