Part of Shorin-Ryu Karate
Affiliated dojo — reviews and the dojo's own info point to a recognized Karate style organization or franchise (think Shotokan/JKA, Kyokushin, Goju-Ryu, Isshinryu, Tiger Schulmann's or Villari's). If lineage matters to you, ask which style and organization the dojo belongs to, and under whom the head sensei earned their black belt.

From the reviews
The Central Florida Ueshiro Shorin Ryu Dojo has been a great experience for our family. Sempai Justin is a great teacher! He loves and respects this style of karate and it clearly shows in his method of teaching.
It's so great to see an authentic Karate School open up in the Orlando area! Sempai Thompson's classes focus on self-development, not the flashy, competitive setting seen at profit-making schools.
A martial arts school that teaches traditional Okinawan karate. The instructor Justin Thompson, is a fantastic teacher. If you are looking for traditional martial arts instruction that is very affordable you should stop in and check out a class.
This is an excellent class. Very traditional style of teaching. Part of a well established organization that has been in operation since the 1960s. The benefits go far beyond self defense. The instructor is very friendly.
Your first Karate class at Central Florida Ueshiro Shorin Ryu Karate
Nervous about walking into a Karate dojo for the first time? Almost everyone is, and a good sensei expects beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic stances, blocks, punches, and kicks — not hard sparring. Step to the side whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot. What to bring: water, and a mouthguard if you have one — many dojos lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi and the belt your dojo awards you. Kumite (sparring) eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the sensei. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
