Charlottesville Yoseikan, Chito-ryu Karate-Do
Charlottesville Yoseikan, established in October 2002, promises superior training in the art and way of Chito-ryu Karate.
Chartered under the aegis of the United States Chito-ryu Karate Federation, founded by William J. Dometrich, Hanshi and Barbara E. Dometrich, Kyoshi as directed by O'Sensei, Dr. Tsuyoshi Chitose, founder of Chito-ryu Karate-Do, Charlottesville Yoseikan strives to promote the tenets of Chito-ryu karate in all aspects of this martial way.
We will promote the well being of all individuals who seek training in karate-do by assisting them to achieve a greater sense of health physically, mentally, and spiritually through the ideals handed down from the knowledge and skill of the founder of Chito-ryu, Dr. Chitose, O'Sensei. |

 | Saturday Training
While many people look forward to Saturday as a chance to sleep in, members of the Charlottesville Yoseikan look forward to Saturdays as a chance to train harder and longer than week days allow. Twenty plus karate-ka join in this experience, moving through Kihon, Kata, and Kumite. Several students continue their training with Iaijutsu. Next Saturday when you're reaching for that second or third cup of coffee, think of these dedicated karate-ka, and perhaps come join us.
