The new head master of the club Sensei Leonard Martin is looking forward to continuing the 32 year old tradition of "Traditional" Okinawan Karate and Kobudo which was originally founded at UW by Soke Hausel. Our karate club has a rich history and tradition at UW as one of the original club sports recognized on campus. “Traditional Karate” is the original form of karate that teaches respect, traditions, self esteem, and devastating self defense. Practitioners of traditional karate do not participate in any form of competition.  http://hombu.webs.com/
