Welcome to the Mid-America Karate Region's website. Our clubs teach a traditional Japanese martial art, known as Shotokan Karate.
We are a member of the International Shotokan Karate Federation (ISKF), which was founded by the late Master Teruyuki Okazaki.
Our Chief Instructor is Sensei Martin Vaughan, who began his martial arts training in 1972. Assisting Dr. Vaughan with our Regional trainings is Sensei James Oberschlake.
Please visit our 'Regional Clubs' page to find a Club near you. You can also visit our 'Calendar' page to see where our next Regional Training will be held.
We hope to see you soon!
