2013 Theme Announced
Every year, TIKK has a theme. Kyoshi Shihan Kristensen has chosen "We will be like a fine tuned machine-with great self esteem in 2013!" for our theme this year.
2013 TIKK Gasshuku a Huge Success for Many.
The Texas Isshinryu Karate Kai Annual Gasshuku took place on April 12-14, 2013 at Camp Summit with perfect weather. The senior students took part in training culminating in the Shiai on April 14, 2013 where they were joined with the junior students. An estimated crowd of a little over 200 attended. Congratulations to all who were recognized for their efforts! See you next year!
Kyoshi Robert A. Kristensen founded Texas Isshinryu Karate Kai in 1991 giving his first lessons at the Kindercare and Lewisville, Texas VFW. Thanks to him, you can experience real martial arts at a school that focuses exclusively on learning the true meaning and application of the martial arts. Improve your focus and perfect your character while taking lessons in an art based on traditions passed down from Okinawan Masters. Our school emphasizes the importance of honor, courage, loyalty, respect, family, and dedication in our daily lives. Our Main Dojo is located in Coppell, Texas and we have classes in several locations in North Texas.
