White Rock Kenshinkan teaches traditional karate in a relaxed, Austin style. The classes are fairly small so there are many opportunities to dive deep into the techniques and history that is taught and to really study the art of karate. There are several black belts of varying skill levels to give a good mix of instruction, and there is a good amount of time to work on the various techniques at each skill level. Many students also have experience with, or even black belts in, another martial style. WRKK incorporates traditional karate, self-defense (tuite), and weaponry (kobudo) into a complete package. Tradition is observed and taught (including using proper Okinawan terminology and etiquette) without it becoming onerous and simply a method to enforce uniformity. WRKK enjoys a rich connection to the Honbu dojo in Okinawa, with many opportunities to train with and learn from our Grandmaster Fusei Kise, his son Isao Kise (the current president of our federation), and other high-ranking experts in this style of karate on a wide variety of subjects. WRKK is not a "McDojo" - the instructors strive to ensure that all students not only know how to perform the techniques but also truly understand them at their current level before moving on to the next. At WRKK, you don't just "learn" karate moves or techniques - you study them. We have fun, we train hard, we ask questions, and we seek to train the best martial artists that we can at any skill level. Stop on by and observe a class or two, or better yet: jump on in and join us! You'll be glad you did!

Coach Saunders has helped over 100 athletes go to college on scholarships in a short period of time. You gain mental toughness and the ability to shoot the ball consistently at a high percentage. You will also develop other needed skills. No one can teach you to shoot better than he can. He also has trainers who specialize in other sports such as football 3 athletes went on to play in the NFL. We love training with Coach Saunders . He is the best around!

I can't say enough wonderful things about this organization. The facility was fun and clean. The music that was played during the workout was awesome and appropriate. My son left there asking when he could go back, and is currently trying to get his whole line to join him to work out. He said "if we all went we would be unstoppable, wouldn't that be cool!"

He really understands the game and trains me physically and mentally. Football IQ has surely been increased as a result of his coaching.
