Welcome! Irashai mase! We believe that, even in today's digitally and technologically-connected world, there's still many new lessons we can learn from doing things 'old school.' While the world moves between hybrid arts to pushing the limits of human endurance, we explore the values of training in the classical martial arts. We study a martial path that leads us away from violence, not towards it. We understand that confidence and discipline means we do not need to show our strength. We know that, if we must defend ourselves in a fight, not losing is a better outcome than 'winning.'Many may consider karate to be a violent art; however, true Okinawan karate should be considered and function as the antithesis of/ the antidote to violence.
