We are a Matsubayashi Ryu Karate dojo,
the Centre for studies of Okinawan Martial Arts, History
and Culture, keeping Okinawan karate alive in Eindhoven.
What makes us different
We teach karate in English, offering the vast Eindhoven expat community and to all residents a dojo where they can learn without the barrier that comes along with not fully understanding the Dutch language.
Our aim is to provide a space where karateka can learn the way of Okinawan Karate, in an understanding and patient environment.
We are the Centre for studies of Okinawan Martial Arts, History and Culture in Eindhoven.
We do not fight, we practice karate-do.
Beginners are welcome
We teach karate to students from the age of 6 onwards, as well as adults, regardless of age or level of experience!

Alongside our regular curriculum, we run dedicated advanced classes that provide intense kata, kumite, and kobudo training for ambitious students.
