Years ago, as a U.S. Marine, I was stationed in the best place in the world for martial arts training- the island of Okinawa, Japan. Over the years I returned to Okinawa several times to continue my studies and my incredible masters travelled to Rhode Island to teach me and my students.

Our specialty is known as the 'bodyguard' martial art developed centuries ago to protect the royal family on Okinawa. It is called Udundi, or Palace Hand. Seldom seen outside Japan this rare style offers a practicality that makes it ideal for todays world. To those unfamiliar with Palace Hand it appears to be a mix of karate, aikido and ju-jitsu, though it is none of these.
Weapons
Report
Of course no one carries a sword but the strategies, tactics and techniques of the sword can apply to anything you can get your hands on. Weapons classes are a great way to get a moderate workout while learning new and challenging skills. You do not need any martial arts experience and you may join our weapons classes without joining other classes.
