“The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.”

Lao Tzu

Are you a mature accomplished adult who is sports active and participates in say running, weight training, road biking, tennis or skiing? Do you enjoy the pursuit of a healthy lifestyle but at times find the motivation a challenge as your activity (e.g. the treadmill) can be somewhat mindlessly boring?
Perhaps you have been intrigued at times by the thought of martial arts training but the right opportunity never materialized. The thought of entering a Dojo to inquire about what’s involved was just too intimidating as images of ‘MMA‘ type contact is not even a remote possibility . You’re a professional in your work and could not and would not want any form of injury or abusive interaction . Perhaps you have heard or read a bit about Okinawa – ‘the birthplace of karate’ and the related lifestyle that promotes longevity and mental well being but never imaged the real deal is available right here in Oshawa in a amazing traditional Dojo with super-qualified instructors .

Our Dojo represents the oldest Karate style from Okinawa with connections into the original Dojo found there and our training is directed by one of the most prolific Okinawa 10th-Dan masters, Eihachi Ota. If you are interested in an onsite meeting to see the Dojo and instructors please call DANIEL OBRIEN at (905) 442-1114 and of course continue to review our web site!
