About Us

With over 30 years on the mats, Koshinkan Academy is dedicated to helping students improve every day. Our self-defense focused instruction adapts to each student’s pace. We emphasize Kata (“form” in Japanese)—structured movements that build muscle memory through repeated practice. To ensure students can apply their techniques in a real-life situation, we balance this with randori, or live resistance training, against an active opponent.

Our History

Koshinkan Academy has been rolling strong since 1994 and continues to do so today. We began under the leadership of founder and professor John Shipley. After nearly 30 years at the helm, John passed Koshinkan Academy down to his student, owner Brad Warren. Brad started as John’s student in 2018, and now teaches alongside him as they strive to carry forward the academy’s tradition of excellence and community. Brad has been teaching since he gained his black belt in 2023.

Danzan Ryu

Seishiro Okazaki (1890–1951) was the founder of Danzan Ryu Jujitsu, a system that blends traditional Japanese jujitsu with elements of Judo, Chinese martial arts, and Hawaiian healing arts. After overcoming tuberculosis through martial arts training, he dedicated his life to teaching self-defense, physical conditioning, and the philosophy of mutual benefit. Okazaki emphasized both effective combat techniques and the importance of character development, incorporating a code of ethics known as Kodenkan to guide students in their personal growth. His teachings continue to influence modern jujitsu practitioners worldwide.
