About

The Asato Dojo is located in the heart of Naha, Okinawa, the birthplace of karate. Led by James Pankiewicz, founder of the DOJO Bar and the 100 Kata Challenge event and 5th dan Matsubayashiryu karatedo practitioner, the Asato Dojo offers instruction in traditional Okinawan karate and kobudo, fitness classes, unique seminar events and karate goods for purchase. Above all the Asato Dojo is a friendly and open environment where all are welcome to join our classes regardless of skills or experience.
