ABQ Okinawan Karate utilizes several weapons traditional to Okinawan karate in our katas.
Self Defense
The need to apply self defense techniques can occur when you least expect it.
Katas
Kata is a systematically organized series of defensive and offensive techniques performed in a sequence against one or more imaginary opponents.
Instructor
Sensei Michael Sheyahshe achieved the rank of Shodan (1st degree/dan black belt) 2011 & was awarded the rank of Nidan (2nd degree/dan black belt) in 2013.
Lineage
Our lineage extends from Chinese and Okinawan Masters. ABQ Okinawan Karate teaches TOKAR, which takes its katas from Naha-Te, one of the original styles of karate.
