About the Dojo
Mountain View dojo officially opened in 1990. It started as a kid’s class in Brock Loveland’s garage. Adults soon joined in. At the time, Brock was also assisting Phil Welker across town with the Boise State dojo. Garage growth led to seeking space at nearby Mtn. View School. Space was exchanged for teaching community ed. classes. Rick Shelton helped coordinate the program. In time, Brock called Mr. Ohshima about opening an SKA dojo. He graciously gave his permission and encouragement.
Shotokan karate is a traditional Japanese martial art derived from Okinawan karate styles. According to Gichin Funakoshi, the true essence of Karate-do is this, "...that in daily life, one's mind and body be trained and developed in a spirit of humility; and that in critical times, one be devoted utterly to the cause of justice."
