Welcome to Shotokan Karate of Newbury Park

Shotokan Karate is a traditional Japanese style that is practiced all over the world. Its founder, Gichin Funakoshi, blended two styles of martial arts he learned as a boy on Okinawa into what is now called Shotokan Karate. Shotokan is considered a hard style of karate due to its powerful kicks, strong linear techniques, and low rooted stances. The emphasis is on building a strong character as well as conditioning the body. Karate training offers many benefits to students of all ages and can be practiced by anyone with no special equipment.
