Shorin-ryu Karate School is a top quality dojo. The supervising Sensei is an 8th Dan with over 30…read moreyears' experience, as well as being Yudansha in other styles. The primary instructor has over 25 years in various martial arts and takes the time to address the specific needs of the students. The dojo has been open since 1990, making it one of the oldest in the Grand Rapids area. Shorin-ryu is a traditional Okinawan style taught in a traditional manner. The emphasis is upon self-perfection through physical disciple - the Do. If you are looking for a MMA school or practical self-defense program, this is not the dojo for you. If you seek quality instruction, increased self-development, and improved physical fitness - Shorin-ryu Karate School is the place to be.

From the owner: Traditional Shorin-Ryu Okinawan Style Karate-Do and Ryukyu Kobudo…read more The essence of orthodox Okinawan Karate-Do, as expressed by the Okinawa Karate-Do Association, and Ernest Estrada-Sensei, who is the president of the Okinawa Karate-Do North American: "Okinawan Karate is not based on winning, it is based on not losing.” Training then becomes its reward with the idea that Okinawan karate can be for everyone, not just for those who are competitive. Women, children, and older people may benefit from the systematic methods employed by our instructors. Shorin-Ryu Karate School was established in 1990 as a means of promoting original Chibana-style Shorin-ryu Karate-Do and Ryukyu Kobudo. We teach an authentic form of martial art passed down from generation to generation. This is not a “sport” karate dojo or one that sponsors tournament-style karate.
