Hendersonville Shorin-Ryu Karate Dojo

The system of karate that is taught in our dojo is Okinawan Shorin-ryu karate as developed hundreds of years ago in Shuri, Okinawa. It is assumed that 80% of all karate systems in the world today were derived from Okinawan Shorin-ryu karate. This classical system of karate uses both hands and feet for a well-rounded system of self-defense. Shorin-ryu is a fighting system of karate with self-mastery as its primary goal and practical self-defense as its primary aim. The Hanshi, or “master instructor”, of our Shorin-ryu Kensankai karate is Doug Perry, 9 th degree black belt. Sensei Doug Perry has dedicated over 60 years of his life to the study of karate-do. His exemplary personal example, knowledge, and insistence upon “pure” karate are an inspiration to all true martial artists.

I have been to many other Dojos and the other Dojos usually have one or two Sensei, but this Dojo may have any where to 8 to 10 Sensei on any given night.
