 Bushidokai is a Dojo which specializes in holistic self-development. We have a ball with the kids classes, but teaching maturity, good choices, propriety, True self defense and holistic health are our top priority. That is what the word "Shorei" means in the name of our art, Kosho Shorei Ryu.  Sensei LoPriore, and his wife Cheryl who teaches our 5-8-year-olds class, have four children themselves. Our Dojo has a tremendous children's program, and parents are always welcome to watch class to be better able to assist their children with home practice. We also have handbooks, DVDs and this website available to members of the Dojo for supporting the high-quality education available through Kosho Shorei Ryu. We've got some tips below on internet self-defense and a few other informational items better shared with parents than the kids, but please share these with your children in the way you feel is most appropriate.
