What Is Yoshukai Karate?

Yoshukai Karate is a traditional martial art that emphasizes practical self-defense, discipline and respect, physical conditioning, and mental focus. Our instruction follows traditional Yoshukai principles while maintaining a supportive and encouraging environment for students and families.

What to Expect Your First Day

Your first class is simple and stress-free. We ask that students arrive a little early and wear comfortable athletic clothing. No uniform is required for the first class. Students are guided step-by-step by the instructor, with a focus on learning fundamentals, safety, and feeling welcome.

What to Bring

Students should wear comfortable workout clothes, bring a water bottle, and come ready to learn. Uniforms and any additional equipment can be discussed after getting started.

Class Structure

Classes typically include warm-ups and conditioning, basic techniques and movements, and age-appropriate partner drills. Discipline, respect, and confidence are reinforced throughout each class. Student safety and proper instruction are always top priorities.
