About Us

Odokan Karate dojo was at 2501 Kingsway in Vancouver from 1987 to June 2012. Since July 2012, our dojo has been at 3465 Kingsway St. The dojo program is run by two experienced senior instructors, Kaz Hashimoto and Mark Stacey. The club’s other instructors are some of Canada’s elite karate competitors and the practice environment for both our adult and junior programs is challenging and stimulating. We practice traditional Shito-ryu karate and emphasize training skills and competitive technique without forgetting the importance of developing discipline and respect.
