Dojo Master Yurio Nakada

Local master Yurio Nakada, 7th Dan, founded our
school in Anchorage in 1968. Born in Naha
Okinawa in 1949 he began his training at age 15
in the Okinawa Jundokan under the late master
Eiichi Miyasato, 10th Dan. Sensei Nakada
received all of his promotions at the Okinawa So
Honbu headquarters . An especially gifted
practitioner, sensei Nakada excelled in the art
and has generated many national and world
champions from his local school in Anchorage.
Sensei Nakada's students know him as a
humble, highly skilled martial artist excited by
the art with a tireless devotion and dedication to
his pupils.  He has dedicated over 42 years to the
 discipline and volunteers his time freely.
A privilege to train under, sensei Nakada both
commands and earns respect from all.
