Welcome to Shorin-Ryu Shorinkan Karate

Welcome to the official Shorin-Ryu Shorinkan Karate South Africa web page.

You will find the history of Shorin-Ryu Karate and Kobudo in South Africa, the latest news and links to Shorin-Ryu Karate internationally.

Shorin-Ryu South Africa, led by Kyoshi Claude Johnson (8^th Dan), practices traditional Okinawan Shorin-Ryu Karate and Kobudo( Kobayashi-Ryu ) as taught by our late Grandmaster, Shugoro Nakazato “Hanshi JuDan” and now, his son, Hanshi JuDan, Minoro Nakazato from Naha, Okinawa, Japan.

As a National organization, we are affiliated to the Okinawan Shorin-Ryu Shorinkan family via Kyoshi Pat Haley based in USA.

Our passion is Shorin-Ryu Karate and we trust that you will enjoy your visit to the home of Shorin-Ryu Karate in South Africa.

The purpose of the site is to promote Shorin-Ryu Shorinkan Karate and Kobudo as well as the individual clubs across the country that promote the style in accordance with our constitution. It is the instructors who give so much time and energy into teaching the next generation that we salute with great respect.
