Dumesle J. says, "I’ve been training here for about a year now, and it’s been a truly transformational experience. I’ve always had a passion for martial arts, but this system stands out because of how deep and diverse it is. You’re able to develop your own strengths and specialties without compromising the integrity of the training.
The instruction is exceptional. The Grandmaster brings a rare combination of practical experience and deep traditional martial arts knowledge. Training covers all facets—weapon work, grappling, and stand-up—while still remaining grounded in true martial arts principles. Everything is tailored to your level, and progression feels natural as long as you’re willing to put in the work.
What really sets this dojo apart is the environment. Classes are small, focused, and personal. It feels like a true dojo—somewhere you can train for a lifetime—not a commercialized, high-volume gym. It’s not overly aggressive or competition-driven; instead, it emphasizes real karate-do and personal development. It makes you want to train and grow in every aspect of the art.
I’m proud to be a practitioner of Ishaodo. I genuinely believe anyone interested in learning martial arts, understanding combat, or gaining a deeper awareness of real-world violence should train here—even if just for 3–6 months. The knowledge you gain is invaluable.
Shout out to Shihan Joe for his dedication and commitment to passing on his knowledge. He is always accessible, always teaching, and truly invested in his students.
Looking forward to seeing more people on the mats.
Remember—get after it and train.
