About Tanren Karate

Sensei James Ferri, Roku-Dan (6th degree Black Belt), Renshi is the lead instructor at Tanren Karate.

All our instructors are licensed by the World Chito-Ryu Karate-Do Federation.

Our training is focused on exploring Chito-Ryu Karate-Do and its applications through kihon, kata, kumite, kobudo and goshin jutsu. We also enrich our training by exploring and incorporating elements of different martial arts and hand-to-hand fighting systems.

The goal of Tanren Karate is to strengthen the body, mind and spirit and to develop martial arts abilities in the same way one would forge a sword - with effort, skill and discipline. We place a high value on developing very proficient martial artists.
