International Karate Association's Kubojitsu is Soke Kubota's fusion of Jujitsu, Judo, Aikido, as well as his own Taihojitsu techniques (techniques of arrest used by police and security), and defense against weapons.
Kubojitsu is unique in that it fuses all these disciplines into a highly effective form of self-defense. Kubojitsu allows one to control and restrain an opponent as well as use and opponent's force and momentum against themselves for both control and defense. The use of throws, choke holds, wrist and arm locks, as well as strikes are all part of the curriculum.
Classes are held every Thursday evening and personally taught by Soke Kubota.

I am very pleased that I have found your Karate studio. I feel very welcome as a new student. I have found all staff/ instructors to be profoundly patient and beyond skilled on an exponential level.
The most evident thing to me as a new student is: I feel the heart and joy of this Karate because everybody in the studio conveys that feeling. So for me.. if you want my input as a newcomer,I like the joy the most :) and the : hard work, sweat, wood floors and nothing fancy.
I have told ALL my friends where I work ( in a hospital ) to come visit because I think that your studio is a GEM!! I have a friend who does Judo at work, and he was interested to stop by with his instructor - but... I do not know the policy on drop ins, and do not want to be rude.
So to sum up, if I had one recommendation to change it would be: don't fundamentally. That is the truth Your studio is very unique. I would maybe recommend some add'l items for purchase- like bumper stickers, or T- shirts w/ IKA logo - because I will so represent.
I think also that the Kumite tournaments you will be doing will benefit the kids. BTW- I also think your web site is excellent too. So that is my 2 cents. Thanks for this privilege!
