Sensei Bruce Adkins

I am Sensei Bruce Adkins, and I've been involved in martial arts since I was 13 years old. Over the years, I have trained in multiple disciplines, but it was the traditional Okinawan Karate that truly captured my heart. With over 30 years of experience, I specialize in Matsubayashi Shorin Ryu Karate, a style deeply rooted in the rich history of Okinawa. For the past 20 years, I’ve been dedicated to teaching this art, not just as a martial discipline, but as a way to build confidence, strength, and character in my students.

As the sole instructor at Okinawan Karate Do-Ni, my mission is to pass on the timeless principles of Okinawan Karate while helping each student reach their full potential. I take pride in teaching in a way that closely follows the original Okinawan traditions, ensuring that my students don’t just learn techniques but also the mental and spiritual aspects of martial arts. Whether you’re training to improve your fitness, learn self-defense, or grow in character, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. I look forward to working with you and helping you achieve your goals in martial arts.
