International Shuriway Karate & Kobudo Society

•  DIRECTOR & ADVISORS

The International Shuriway Karate & Kobudo Society is recognized as a leading traditional martial arts organization. Dedicated to the preservation of the Ryukyu Arts because we believe there is knowledge to be gained from all of the world's martial systems. Most of the "old Masters" knew this to be true and trained in various arts to enhance their knowledge and ability.

The International Shuriway Karate & Kobudo Society was founded to help preserve our diverse martial arts history and eliminate politics found in many associations or styles. We conduct promotions based on experience, knowledge, and ability. An Advisory Board directs the certifications, and promotions. No single individual determines acceptance into the association or professional ability of any candidates. The following officers are responsible for the day to day operation of the association.
