I have been in operation in Satellite Beach for eleven years. I ran a very traditional Okinawan Goju-Ryu Karate Dojo and was part of the International Okinawan Goju-Ryu Karate-do Federation. I hosted Morio Higaonna 10th degree Grand Master for a seminar here in 2000. I also hosted Seiki Takushi Kancho of the Shobukan in 2002. So why did I change from a traditional Karate school to an MMA school. To say I changed completely would be a misnomer. I added to the curriculum of our school. More and more students wanted to grapple and do Brazilian Jiu- jitsu and do Muay Thai kickboxing. People wanted practical close quarter self defense so we added Krav Maga. Folks wanted a great workout that keeps them fit and healthy so we put an emphases on cardiovascular conditioning and body weight strength training. So in an effort to have a broader appeal to the public and serve the community's needs I officially changed the name of our school to Master Lowell's Mixed Martial arts academy.
I still practice traditional martial Arts and always will. I now offer traditional Goju-Ryu Kata seminars for students and the public. I also offer weapons seminars for students and the public. I also offer safe smart kids self defense and anti abduction seminars as well as Women's self defense anti rape and abduction courses. We will be offering in the near future Yoga, Pilate's, and Zoomba as well as Aerobic Kickboxing in the mornings. We will be having a summer camp for students and the public. We also do birthday Parties and special events such as Kung fu Theater (Parents night out!) Beach Training, and community action Projects such as Defeat Diabetes, Kids Kicking cancer and the American heart association. This will all be posted here on this blog as to time and dates of the events. Please contact me at 255-3474 if you are interested in any of our classes or events.
