Sensei Dan Dugan (8th degree) Founded Yoshukai Karate Alliance on November 1, 2002! Dugan Sensei began his training in Yoshukai Karate in 1972 and opened his first school in 1976. We are Logan Counties oldest 'traditional' martial arts. We have 2 locations:
Dugan, Dan Sensei Lincoln, Il and
Clinton, IL (YMCA) Sensei Nykol Dugan
Yoshukai Karate is a legitimate style of Tradtitional Japanese karate, with a solid history.
The Alliance is dedicated to perpetuating the art of Yoshukai Karate.
We are a part of the long history of Yoshukai Karate that seems to be never told by others, which is a VERY big part of the history.
Yuki Koda brought Yoshukai to Lincoln, Il from Japan in 1971 to 123 S. Sangamon St. in which Dugan Sensei started his training (1972), he since then as kept it alive. He has kept it pure and simple!
