Welcome to the home of the International Karate League. We are proudly the oldest existing karate school to hail out of Honolulu, Hi, with dojos across the United States and members around the world. We proudly uphold the teachings of our founder Walter Nishioka, in a modified style of Shorin-Ryu Karate.
This site is currently under development. Look forward to many changes and updates coming in the near future from IKL!
