OUR LEGACY
Since the early 1970s there have been more than 100 dojos (karate studios) that have been founded and/or developed under the watchful eye of Kyoshi Frank Hargrove. In the times since, many of those dojos have gone on to spawn new schools under their lineage. In all Frank Hargrove has been responsible for the development of well over 10,000 karate-ka (karate practitioners) in North America and around the world. The first four dojos are the Instructors trained in Okinawa under Nakazato Shugoro Sensei, Below those is just a small sampling of that legacy. Eddie Bethea was also trained in Okinawa by Nakazato Sensei. NO ONE ELSE WAS TRAINED IN OKINAWA.
