(Currently under construction!)
The Association for the Advancement of Karate-do (AAK) has experienced three mass exoduses (?) since its inception. The first splinter went on to form SK (Society of Karate). The second migration, in 1986, resulted in the ASK (Association for Shotokan Karate). Year 2000 saw, in KDA, the largest and most comprehensive migration, depleting AAK of more than 90% of the active black-belters. The KDA (Karate Development Arts & Sports) currently serves as the de facto club for AAK members who have grown dissatisfied with AAK.
The primary purpose of this page is to serve as a meeting place for ex-AAK members. Below is a partial list of ex-AAK members currently practicing with the KDA. Stand up and be counted! If you'd like to get back into karate-do and feel like you've come into the movie halfway through, please do contact us at [email protected] and we'll fill you in...
