Shito-Ryu Karate Locations Near You

Shito-Ryu is a Japanese karate style founded by Kenwa Mabuni, who studied under masters of both the Shuri-te and Naha-te Okinawan lines. It's known for preserving one of the largest kata catalogs in karate and balancing speed with power. Shito-Ryu spans several organizations rather than one franchise, so each dojo emphasizes different kata and grading — check the location near you. This directory tracks 16 Shito-Ryu Karate locations across 8 states, averaging ★ 4.5 on Google — every one ranked below by its Google rating (review count breaks ties), so if two are drivable, you'll know which one members actually prefer.
