Odayaka Martial Arts is a teaching school dedicated to the art of Shorei-ryu karatedo which has its roots in the antique Okinawan martial art of Naha-te.  We emphasize self improvement and character development.  We believe that anyone can be successful in the study of karate and provide training that is geared for the individual.
Shorei-ryu as taught at Odayaka Martial Arts consists of kihon waza, kata, bogyu waza, kumite waza and kumite.
Jim Brumbaugh is the head instructor.  He has studied karate since 1963 and has been teaching for over 30 years.
Bruce Baird, Carolyn Berg and Lynn Forbes are also fully qualified instructors at Odayaka Martial Arts.
