Shoshin Isshinryu Karate

While nearing retirement, I wanted to commit to learning martial arts. I searched for a dojo that had a sense of camaraderie among the students and a welcoming place for an older guy like me. I found in Sensei Kadar's classes a small student group of all ages - each of which investing in each others success. The amount of individual time given to every student speaks volumes to Sensei Kadar's training ethos. Come watch a class and before you know it, you'll ask yourself why haven't you done this sooner!

Joining Shoshin Isshinryu has been one of the best decisions I’ve made! The classes are both challenging and achievable, offering a perfect balance for me as I looked to improve my fitness, flexibility, and self-discipline. Sensei Bill Kadar is an amazing instructor, providing individualized attention and guidance, ensuring that everyone progresses at their own pace while feeling supported and challenged.

The movements we practice are practical and applicable, and the sense of community in the dojo is truly inspiring. In just a few weeks, I’ve noticed significant improvements in my posture, flexibility, and overall attitude. I highly recommend Shoshin Isshinryu to any adult seeking a welcoming environment to grow physically and mentally while learning practical self-defense and a martial art to practice for a lifetime.

My daughter is a student at Shoshin Isshinryu Karate. The experience has been overwhelmingly positive! She is more confident and mentally and physically stronger. Mr. Kadar is a wonderful teacher who is patient and caring. I highly recommend this dojo to anyone interested in studying karate!

I have had the pleasure of training with Shihan William Kader for almost a year now and it has been an amazing journey. His attention to detail and focused class dynamic makes training with him a pleasure. He has fostered a genuine family atmosphere where we all feel welcomed to grow and explore Karate as a unit. If you're interested in learning authentic Okinawan Karate for self defense and personal growth come on by!

I have been a student for four years, and it has been an excellent experience. Sensei Bill Kadar is a fantastic teacher - both knowledgeable and invested in everyone’s progression.
