At Shoken School of Karate, we practice Uechi-Ryu. Uechi-Ryu is a style of Karate from Okinawa, with roots in older Chinese martial arts. It is considered “half hard, half soft”. This describes the unique mix of gentle redirection techniques, smooth movement, and open-handed strikes, with destructive blocks, precision kicks, and the classic “Karate punch”.
Above all, we emphasize respect, self-improvement, and personal growth. At our school, you will not only learn how to defend yourself, but you will develop confidence, a spirit of perseverance, and strength to match!
