After taking Karate for years (Shotokan, Hapkido and Tae kwon do) depending upon where I lived at the time I finally decided it was time to make my dreams of getting a Black belt a reality. Since most of my training was in Shotokan I set out to find a local dojo to train at and ended up at West Coast Shotokan.It was certainly a reality check. Under the instruction of Sensei Ed and Senpai Kevin I learned that so much of my Shotokan technique I had been taught all along needed to be corrected. At first I was frustrated but came to appreciate the time and effort both Sensei Ed and Senpai Kevin were giving me to make sure I did things right before I could advance.If you are looking for the best local Shotokan instruction than please look into the Temple city Dojo on Las Tunas and make sure you meet both Sensei Ed and Senpai Kevin. I guarantee you will be taught Shotokan correctly and get the instruction you deserve. After all you are paying for it and when you receive your next rank you will know you earned it.This is the Original West Coast Shotokan dojo so make sure Sensei Ed and Senpai Kevin are your instructors – you will be well taken care of in your journey to achieving your black belt.
