Description

Specialties

The Shelton Butokukan Dojo has been in operation since 1971. We have classes for adults, children and even some for both parents and kids to train together. We offer a strong junior program, stressing confidence, focus and respect. With 17 active black belts, you’re sure to find someone who’s a good fit to help guide your martial arts learning experience. As many of our instructors are current or past law enforcement officers, we understand and teach the laws as

they apply to self-​defense. Not only will you or your child learn how to defend yourselves, we also teach how to recognize, and avoid, dangerous situations.
