RSKA Information
Preserving the Art.
Protecting the Tradition.
The Ryukyu Shorinji-Ryu Karate Association exists to preserve, practice, develop, and carry forward the traditions of Ryukyu Shorinji-Ryu Karate Jutsu.
RSKA — Keeping Traditions Alive.
RSKA is dedicated to maintaining a direct connection to the traditions, teachings, standards, and lineage that have been passed down through the generations.
Our purpose is not simply to teach techniques. It is to preserve the character, discipline, respect, responsibility, and spirit that make the traditional martial arts meaningful.
HONORING THE ONES THAT CAME BEFORE RSKA
Every generation has a responsibility to protect what was entrusted to it and to ensure that the art continues forward without losing its roots.
