who we areSAMURAI
Well, perhaps not by pedigree but certainly in spirit. Actually, if you meet us in public we look pretty ordinary... much like you. What sets us apart is our commitment—to keep alive the traditional martial arts of Japan through study and training. And, our mission—when the situation calls for it, to act decisively and effectively in the service of country, community, and family.

what we do
TRAINING
Our members enjoy convenient and affordable access to the traditional martial arts of Japan. Membership entails a commitment to training: students commit to regular training, both in class and out of class. Serious old-style martial arts training produces not only practical physical skills, but mental and spiritual benefits as well.

where we do it
CENTER
A traditional Japanese dojo is not like a sport martial art studio, even less like a gymnasium. The term dojo means "place of the way," where "way" refers to a spiritual journey. The best metaphor for dojo is really "temple," a place devoted to sacred activity. A traditional dojo is an austere space where students "polish" their manners, spirit, and heart through intense training.
