Traditional Goju-Ryu Karate in Menlo Park
Seiwakai Karate Silicon Valley (SKSV) was founded to overcome the challenges faced by dojo in the Bay Area, ensuring the timeless art of Goju-Ryu Karate-do continues to thrive in our community. Rooted in tradition, SKSV traces its origins to the Japan Karate Federation Gojukai (JKF Gojukai) and the Dai Nippon Butokukai (the oldest Martial Art organization in the world based in Kyoto Japan). Our teachings honor the legacy of Miyagi Chojun (yes, the real-life inspiration behind Mr. Miyagi!), while following the esteemed methods of Seiwakai Karatedo (Japan), JKF Gojukai (Japan), Dai Nippon Butokukai (Japan) and USA Karate.
