Why Okinawan karate Club of Dallas?
What Our School provides
Our club teaches Shobayashi Shorin Ryu as originated and taught by the late Eizo Shimabukuro Sensei and Shudokan karate as taught by the late Shibucho Walter Todd Sensei. Many of our senior instructors earned rank directly from these teachers. At the OKCD, we strive to maintain the styles and teachings passed down from the heads of our lineage.
For nearly 40 years, our club has benefited from the following:
- A strong foundation laid by our teachers
- A respect for our history
- Traditional teaching methods
- Practical and effective self-defense
- A diverse group of students and teachers
- A community of members helping one another improve
