THE HISTORY OF SEIREI JUKU KARATE

The history of Seirei Juku Karate began in 1973 at the Brooklyn Academy of Music where Kyokushin Karate was the style taught within that dojo and it is where Sensei Padron started on his karate path. Sensei would go on to practicing at a second kyokushin dojo in Brooklyn where he met the legendary Soshu Shigeru Oyama. Kyokushin was still taught there until Soshu transitioned his teachings to his own theory of karate, becoming Oyama Karate and this became the true root of Seireikai Karate. Sensei Padron began teaching Kyokushin/Oyama Karate in the 90's during which time Judo was introduced into the school. In the millennium the school became an independent group and Seireikai was born. In later years Kudo was practiced at the dojo and eventually the techniques of Kudo were added to our curriculum and this is what makes Seireikai Karate the style it is today.
