Shorinjiryu Kentokukan Karatedo

The Kentokukan School of Shorinjiryu Karatedo is the result of Chinese, Okinawan, Japanese and Canadian influences. A blend of Eastern and Western philosophies, the old and the new world into a school, which presents to its students the best of both worlds.

Shorinjiryu Kentokukan Karatedo offers both children and adult programs. Our children’s program (4-17 years) provides the opportunity for the growth of self-esteem, improved concentration, self-discipline, fitness, problem solving and competition.

The adult program offers a wide range of learning experiences such as fitness, skill acquisition, competition (optional), techniques for stress control, personal wellbeing and interpersonal skills.

Everyone has their own needs for fulfillment. We feel that Karatedo is the best medium by which we can help you make a difference in your life.

The Karate courses are offered by certified instructors of the Shorinjiryu Kentokukan Karatedo Federation in accordance with its teaching policies and guidelines.
