Serving the Myrtle Beach/Surfside area for over 15 years, we strive for perfection through martial arts. Alone the journey may seem rigorous & unattainable, but together we stand strong & meet adversity head on. Men, women, and children (ages 6+) train in Goju Ryu Karate Do at The Karate Studio.
Goju Ryu is a style created by Master Chojun Miyagi back in the early 1900's in Okinawa. Although it has made many transitions throughout the years, we strive to teach the traditional style of Goju Ryu. Students learn karate along with history, self-discipline, self-control, strength, and motivation. Whether you train with us for a month or for 20 years, give it a try! You won't be disappointed!
