We are a local family run Martial Arts Dojo that specializes in Self-Defense and Karate training for kids ages 3+ and adults. We also teach traditional Okinawan weapons classes and provide private seminars for groups.
Franco Sanguinetti Sensei has 45 years of active martial arts experience and started the Bushikan Karate Dojo in 1992.
He is currently ranked as a Nana Dan (7th Degree Black Belt) in Okinawa Goju Ryu, Nana Dan in Matayoshi Kobudo Kodokan and Sho Dan (1st Degree Black Belt) in Iai-Do.
His desire to give back to the community takes him to local elementary schools, local daycares and corporations.
