We are the 2004 SKA-West Dojo of the Year!
Shotokan Karate of America (SKA), the oldest karate organization in the US, has named Carson Valley Dojo the Dojo of the Year 2004 in the West region.

This title is awarded to a dojo that has demonstrated traditional SKA qualities like serious practice mentality, non-profit spirit, participation in karate events and, of course, quality of instruction among other things. It is NOT awarded on the merit of
number of students (obviously) or other commercial criteria, which makes it much more meaningful.
