Satellite Dojo's


 First Marine District, Garden City, Long Island, New York. 

Teaching active Duty Marines, Sailors and Civilian Personnel principles of Isshin-ryu, "The Art," as it relates to Hand-To-Hand Combat or Close Combat. The idea is to use the Isshin-ryu, relaxed stances to hold energy and it's simplicity of logic to teach reflexive defense and then a debilitating attack. It is applied to multiple opponents, therefore, we teach stand up skills, with little grappling, since, going to the ground against multiple opponents is dangerous, probably fatal. 

Chief Instructor Hanshi McGrath, Ju-Dan

Classes held on Tuesday and Thursday from 4:00 pm to 5:30 pm.
