About this provider
The dojo teaches traditional Shotokan karate and opened in 1985 as the official ISKF Alberta headquarters. 1 Each junior class starts with about ten minutes of warming up and stretching, then works on stances, punches, blocks and kicks, and moving up the belts adds kata and partner practice. 4 Two instructors ranked 7th dan and 5th dan lead the junior program, backed by the founder, an 8th dan who opened the dojo in 1985. 8 Classes open and close with a short formal bow, which the dojo says is a sign of respect with no religious meaning. 12
