Steve Warren's Shorin-Ryu Karate Academy

🥋✨ Karate in the dark! ✨🥋

Last night our kids class got a little different! With the lights out and glow sticks in hand, the kids had a blast training, laughing, and practicing their karate in the dark! 🌟

Who says training can't be fun?

We will not have class Monday in observance of Labor Day.

Classes will resume on Tuesday at our normal times.

🥋 See you then!

🥋 So Proud of Our Students! 🥋

This weekend marked a huge milestone for several of our students as they stepped onto the tournament floor for the very first time.

Win or lose, every single one of them showed courage, discipline, respect, and the willingness to test themselves outside the comfort of the dojo. That takes true martial spirit.

We couldn't be more proud of the hard work, determination, and positive attitudes they displayed throughout the day. Every match was a lesson, every challenge was an opportunity to grow, and every student represented our dojo with honor.

Congratulations to all of our competitors—you've already made us proud. Now it's back to the dojo, where the real work continues! 👊

What an incredible Summer Camp 2026! Thank you to everyone who came out and made this event so memorable. We are especially grateful to our guest instructors who generously shared their time, experience, wisdom, and encouragement with our students. Your passion for the martial arts and commitment to the next generation mean more than words can express. Thank you all for making this camp one to remember! 🥋🙏

🇺🇸 Memorial Day Announcement 🇺🇸

Attention students and families — our dojo will be CLOSED on Memorial Day as we take time to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

We hope everyone enjoys a safe and meaningful holiday with family and friends. Classes will resume on our normal schedule the following day.

Thank you, and have a great Memorial Day weekend! 🥋

R.I.P. Chuck Norris 3/10/1940 - 3/20/2026

Some legends feel bigger than life, and Chuck Norris is one of them.
Through his strength, discipline, and the inspiration he gave to so many people, he became more than an actor or martial artist—he became a symbol of toughness, perseverance, and character. The world is better because he was in it, and his legacy will keep inspiring people for generations.

To paraphrase Vice President Thomas Marshall - "Death had to take him sleeping, for if he had been awake, there would have been a fight"

There is still some ice on the roads. We would like everyone to play it safe, so we will be closed until Thursday. See you then!
