Much More than a Black-Belt Test

Join a team of like-minded karate students as we embark on a journey through the OneHeart Challenge, a year-long quest rooted in the principles of of Isshinryu Karate–the ‘One-Heart Way.’ While some will use the challenge as part of their next rank promotion, it is so much more than a black-belt test. This challenge embodies the harmonious fusion of mind, body, and spirit.

Join us in the spirit of Isshinryu, where for us, the journey to black-belt becomes a quest to bring our practice Out of the Dojo and Into the World.
