Since the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, Japan has honored their dedication to physical activity by participating in “Health and Sports Day.” Schools and communities participate in this Japanese Physical Education day by performing various exercise activities. Here at UNL, the Kawasaki Reading Room and the Shotokan Karate of America Club will present a free karate class for current University of Nebraska–Lincoln students. No experience or gi required!

The UNL Shotokan Karate of America Club dojo was founded in 1994 and continues to be led by David Altman, fifth degree black belt (Godan / Highest SKA Rank) student of Tsutomu Ohshima, founder of Shotokan Karate of America. Their guiding principles are to fortify their minds and bodies; perfect their character; and faithfully transmit the art to future generations. To continue learning karate, no-contract monthly fees are $20 with practices held weekly on campus. Visit their website at unl.ska.org for more details.
