Welcome to our School - Home of Champions since 1997
We are an approved Off-Campus Physical Education (OCPE) provider.
We welcome you to take your time and view all the programs we offer the community.
Our Main Goals are:
the promotion of Friendship and the practice of Traditional Shotokan Karate-Do. to improve the character of our students to develop students that can become mentors and leaders to provide a location where young teenagers can grow and be away of juvenile crimes to provide and expose students the opportunity to represent the USA in Karate under the USA OLYMPICS.
Since we opened in 1997 we have grown rapidly due to the quality of our classes and the programs we offer to the community. This is the only school, (in Killeen, Temple, Coperas Cove, Belton and Harker Hights) were you can join and learn a Traditional Japanese Martial Art. We offer Karate, Iaido, Kendo and Aikijitsu. We provide quality classes for all ages and levels of experience. We often have visitors from Japan come and train at our facility. We are proud of our students that have won in Regional and National level competition under the USANKF and also have traveled to Japan. We are dedicated to quality and affordable training.
Our organization is headed by Mr. Manuel Da Costa - Shotokan Karate School. Please click on the link on the left labeled "Our Master" to read more about our instructor.
