Explore Train togetherOur story
A tradition of learning together.
Traditional Uechi-Ryu karate, personal instruction, and a community that welcomes the next beginner.
Roots that reach forward.
Buzz Durkin began studying Uechi-Ryu in 1966 and opened our school in March 1974. His study connects our school with Okinawan karate traditions.
The practical work is personal: developing physical skills, focus, confidence, and respect through steady practice.

A milestone worth remembering.
Our school opened in March 1974. Our anniversary artwork celebrates 50 years, from 1974 to 2024.
This historical identity is preserved from the existing public website. It is not a claim that 2026 is the school’s fiftieth year.
