Shoka Leader Handbook

Marty Callahan has spent his life understanding and improving the lives of students both young and old. His passion led to the founding of Shotokan Karate Leadership School in Santa Rosa, CA in 1981 with a dream to awaken the extraordinary leader in his students. Having inspired, taught, coached, supported and trained over 10,000 students in 30,000 classes in Santa Rosa, Marty has become Sonoma County's preeminent martial arts leadership instructor. His students, hundreds of whom have gone on to become leaders in their chosen fields, appreciate his engaging, student centered approach to teaching and they believe you will too. This is his handbook for students and anyone interested in better understanding the principles and practice of Shotokan Karate.
