Traditional Okinawan Shorinryu Karatedo and Kobudo Programs

Our Ryukyukan Karate organization is led by karate master Koei Nohara, President of the Ryukyukan Karatedo Kobudo Federation, and president of the Okinawa (All Ryukyus) Full Contact Karate Association. We ensure that our students learn the unchanged karate and weapons forms practiced by the true ancient masters of Okinawa.

Our travels to Ryukyukan schools throughout the US, Europe and Asia have encouraged friendships to form as we compete and train together.
Ramtown Karate hosts the International Ryukyukan Karatedo and Kobudo Tournament, held in November in Dixon each year, with competitors from the US, Japan and Europe. Click Here for more information on Ryukyukan USA
Our team competes in tournaments and trains with the most competitive AAU and USA-NKF athletes in the US.

Our program supports and encourages athletes of any age to train continuously, striving to strengthen mind, body and spirit; a lifelong quest more important than any match or tournament!
