Experience the Power of Goju-Ryu Kenwakai

Our students and instructors form a family relation, we support and encourage each other.   Training in Visalia Karate-Do allows you to become part of a community of like-minded individuals. You can connect with fellow practitioners, support each other's progress, and form lasting friendships through shared training experiences. 

At Visalia Karate-Do, we believe that the principles of Karate extend far beyond the dojo. We promote  values of respect, humility, and mutual support among practitioners. Students are encouraged to demonstrate respect towards their instructors, peers, and the art itself. Humility is emphasized as a means to foster a receptive mindset for continuous learning and personal growth. 

We offer a variety of programs at Visalia Karate-Do, including Karate and Kobudo.  

Goju-ryu karate focuses on developing physical fitness, resilience, and self-defense skills. 

Visalia Karate-Do classes are suitable for ages 8 - adult and all experience levels.
