Training at the Northwest Isshinryu dojo begins with a 15-20 minute warm-up, which includes stretching and calisthenics. Following the warm-up are blocks, strikes, kicks, takedowns, rolls & falls, as well as one-on-one and multiple-attacker self-defense and sparring. Traditional empty hand and weapon forms are practiced extensively, as they are the foundation of Isshinryu Karate. Aikido is practiced primarily in the self-defense applications of Te Jutsu; the intent being to effectively defend oneself while causing minimal harm to the attacker yet being able to meet the attacker at their level of intensity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A primary focus of traditional martial arts training is developing and maintaining a healthy mind, body, and spirit. Confidence is gained through becoming stronger mentally and physically, all the while learning and improving movement, balance, self-defense and sparring ability. This growth and increasing capability in the martial arts is tempered with the awareness and practice of humility and respect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ages 12 and older are welcome to apply for participation in classes, which are held at the Fruitland Grange on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Training location – 11102 86 Ave E Puyallup, WA 98373<\/p>\n\n\n\n
