Write a Review413-885-2572

The UechiRyu Zankai Canata Dokokai is dedicated to the practice and preservation of an original, old style KarateDo. The owner/instructor, Tony Canata, is a member of the Okinawa KarateDo UechiRyu Zankai (UechiRyu Mountain Association), and trained on Okinawa Japan. UechiRyu KarateDo develops a healthy and strong, but soft and flexible approach to life. The original karate exercises (kata) develop softness, timing, the proper use of power, flexibility, resilience, balance and stability, in a controlled and healthy way. We maintain a class environment and teaching method that reflects and promotes these attributes. This is not a sport school. We do not train for competition. Our classes are a cooperative effort to develop a healthy way of living. Children learn alongside adults with age-appropriate adjustments. All of us, including the teacher, are here to learn.
