World Oyama Karate is based on the ancient tradition system of training. Our style is quite different from most modern styles of Karate. We first teach basic attack techniques, not block techniques. By learning an offensive technique first, you can understand the importance of the block that is necessary for it's defense. In the World Oyama style, we always teach each technique with contact. World Oyama Karate has brought the true ancient way of learning Karate to modern training. In our teaching style, we connect basic training, KATA training and KUMITE training, allowing the student to understand the relationship between the three. It is through your sweat and hard training that your mind is opened to understanding. Only then can you connect the mental with the physical and truly understand the point of Karate. This is our philosophy. We offer a wide range of Karate classes for both children and adults. Classes also include Weapons training, Heavy Bag training and a Ladies exercise classes. We offer Private lessons for one on one training for advanced students.
