Shorin-Ryu Karate School
1420 Plainfield Ave NE, 3rd Floor, Grand Rapids, MI, 49505
About this gym
Shorin-Ryu Karate School was established in 1990 as a means of promoting original Chibana-style Okinawa Shorin-ryu karate and Ryukyu kobudo weaponry. The school teaches an authentic form of martial arts passed down from generation to generation, as opposed to sport or tournament-style karate, with an emphasis on strict discipline, rigorous training, and mastery of basic techniques. Shorin-Ryu Karate School offers a family-friendly environment with affordable rates and classes for students ages five and up, allowing parents and children to train at the same time. There are no contracts for tuition, no sign-up fees, or other hidden charges.
