WHAT WE DO

KIHON is about more than just punching and kicking;

Our school is a community of friends in mutual pursuit of continual progress and improvement.

Our primary focus is on developing well-rounded fighters and participating in (and winning!) high-level competition, but the KIHON KARATE curriculum also includes traditional Okinawan kata, grappling, and self defense strategies and techniques.

RECENT REVIEW

KIHON KARATE has improved my life on many levels. Foremost being an increase in personal confidence. I was always unsure if I could defend myself. I feel very confident I can do this now. Not only do I feel confident to protect myself and my family, but I feel I can instruct others also."
