ASHIHARA "FIGHTING" KARATE JUTSU

Dive Right In

Ashihara Karate Jutsu is a Full Contact modern system of Street Karate which includes punching, kicking, grabbing, pulling, locks, throws, take-downs, body movement and basic ground work. It is considered to be the most practical style of Karate to come out of Japan and the future, we believe, of Karate. We teach you how to use your own instinctive reactions to defend yourself efficiently and effectively. We have separate classes for both Adults 13+ and Junior students 5 to 12 years old.
