I have not gotten experience yet at this place I would like to try to get hold of the owner every time I try to talk to somebody they keep telling me that they do not do the sparring and yet in the comment section the owner says that they do the if the owner can message me back with a time for me to call him so that way I can schedule something it will be highly appreciated I seen you had sport as an option on your list of things you offer
I've been attending Kodokai's adult classes for just about a year. In that time, I have seen remarkable changes in every area of my life. While I have learned invaluable self-defense skills, I've also grown in my humility, courage, and critical thinking.

Kodokai Dojo is a remarkable place to both cultivate self-defense, as well as discipline and mindfulness. Having come here for nearly one year now, I can say that the instructors here are genuine in their care for their students, and even more so in their craft.

While on the mats, you will learn vital and realistically applicable self-defense skills and techniques that reply on principles of human biology a... read more

Kodokai is a dojo that teaches practical and effective martial arts techniques passed down through generations before on Okinawa, and it’s done in an authentic and personable way.

There’s a strong focus on self defense alongside martial katas and weapon arts, but there’s never any pressure to try and catch up or compete with others. Above all, what they teach is real and not for sport,... read more
