My son has been learning his martial arts here for almost 3 years now. He has thrived under the training of the excellent teachers. His confidence and abilities have grown tremendously. Love this Dojo and everything Shoshin-Ryo stands for.

Shoshin Ryu NC is fantastic. The instructors are incredible, they are excellent with kids of all abilities and work to develop the students both physically and mentally. They are very welcoming to both new and existing students, I would highly recommend this school for anyone looking for a martial arts school.

I have been training at Shoshin Ryu since 2011 and cannot say enough how much this school and system of martial arts has changed my life for the better! Shoshin Ryu strives to teach the most efficient, effective martial techniques, while promoting mindfulness and integrity.

All 3 of our kids train here. They are amazing instructors that teach so much more than self defense. More than ever our children need to build their self confidence, self control and humility. I highly recommend this school for all family members.

Shoshin Ryu is an incredible system to learn to better yourself mentally, physically and spiritually. The instructors and students here are all helpful to help everyone grow to their full potential. I have truly enjoyed training here and give it a high recommendation.

I would highly recommend this school for anyone interested in learning martial arts. The instructors are knowledgable, skilled and kind and create a very fun, welcoming environment for youth and adults alike. Give them a try!

This school has personally helped me to grow into both a better martial artist and human being. It is a safe place to set aside your ego to learn, and it has some of the most encouraging and positive individuals who I am grateful to have encountered. I would highly recommend stopping in for a class, even if you are hesitant to begin martial arts. The people are friendly, and the instruction is phenomenal.

I took a self defense class here and it was great! The people are very knowledgeable and friendly.

This is by far the best martial school Ive attended. The style is practical and effective, and the instructors are excellent.

Sensei Lawrence is a very knowledgeable instructor, fit, and makes the classes fun. He is a great leader that can help you grow at your own pace. If you want to learn real Self Defense and have fun, go train with the NC Shoshin Ryu dojo.

Sensei Lawrence is an effective, experienced and thoughtful instructor of the martial arts. Anyone who has doubts about joining Shoshin Ryu NC, should leave them at the dojo door and train with this magnificent group of proficient martial artists.

Very welcoming and supportive environment, great interactions with new to ranking students.
