Gōjū-ryū (剛柔流?)
Our Style
Gōjū-ryū (剛柔流?) is a traditional Okinawan style that incorporates both circular and linear movements into its curriculum. It combines hard striking attacks such as kicks and close hand punches with softer open hand circular techniques for attacking, blocking, and controlling the opponent. It includes locks, grappling, takedowns and throws and was founded by the Okinawan Karate Master, Chōjun Miyagi.

From our Lincoln dojo:
Konnichi wa everyone!
We are just a month away from the Roseberry Invitational Kata Tournament! This year is special because it will be held on March 8th, what would have been Shihan Roseberry’s 90th Birthday! We hope everyone can come join us to celebrate by demonstrating our best kata and hopefully take home an award. Everyone will get to perform two kata during the competition. Remember there is also Kata Bunkai competition at this tournament, so find a buddy and practice!
The tournament begins at Noon on March 8th at the Lincoln Martial Arts Center. Details and registration forms are attached and available on the events page of the LMAC website at: Events | Lincoln Martial Arts Center. Instructors, please share this with your students!
Let’s have a great turnout for Shihan’s 90th birthday! I look forward to seeing you then!
