This is the place to go if you want to learn old-school dirty street fighting; Okinawan style karate. Sure, the place does not look fancy like other martial arts studio, but we’re here to learn self-defense, not look pretty in a Gi. There are many senior black belts who are helpful and knowledgable. Best of all is Kyoshi Sid Rayford. He has a great sense of humor, which is complimented by his caring wife Renshi Amy. Their experiences includes teaching special needs, former teacher for Le Grand High School, teaching home-school students and much much more. You know it’s the real deal when you spar with Kyoshi and try to kick him. Rather than advancing your moves, you ponder why does your shin hurt so much?! His bones are super calcified, a sign of a great master. Did I mention that you have the opportunity to learn weapons/kobudo: Tonfas, Jigen-Ryu style swordship, Sais and Bo Staff.
