ABOUT US

JKA East Bay is a traditional Shotokan Karate club in the East Bay of Northern California affiliated with JKA NorCal.  We are organized under the JKA American Federation under Mikami Sensei. Shotokan is a style of karate that is weaponless and split into three major components: kihon (basics), kata (a specific arrangement of forms), and kumite (sparring). As a dojo, we strive to help our students utilize these techniques in forms of self-defense, and guide them to reach a sense of self-discipline. We accept both children and adults, ages 7 and up. Feel free to contact us with any questions. While classes are temporarily not being held in Union City, CA please feel free to visit our parent dojo, JKA of Northern California, with classes held in San Bruno, CA.
