Tony Partlow Sensei, the Shibucho of the United States, went to Ireland last September to teach the first seminar on Okinawa Shogen-Ryu Karate-Do at the dojo of Michael Quinn Sensei.

​During Quinn Sensei's recent trip to Okinawa, to train with Maeda Sensei and other senior students of the Honbu Dojo, Maeda Sensei confirmed that he would make the trip next summer. The seminar will be sometime in June or July and the final dates will be set soon.

​Maeda Sensei also surprised Michael by having him test at the end of his visit. Michael passed and was awarded the rank of Godan and had his dojo elevated from a Fukushibu Dojo to a full Shibu Dojo!

The direct  students of our founder, Kensei Taba, Hanshi, Judan, have united under the new Kaicho, Kiyomasa Maeda, Hanshi, Judan, to help spread TRUE Shogen-Ryu Karate-Do as taught by our teacher, Taba Sensei.

​There is only one Association that teaches Shogen-Ryu Karate-Do. There is only one Association that has the support of the Taba family. Anyone outside of the Okinawa Shogen-Ryu Karate-Do Association is not Shogen-Ryu Karate-Do, no matter what they claim.
