Practical Tradition

Uechi-Ryu karate is a traditional Okinawan style, and we honor that tradition while focusing on its application in practical self-defense.

Quality Instruction

All of our instructors have, at minimum, their second degree black belt, and some have over 20 years of experience in the practice of Uechi-Ryu!
