Given the rapid spread of COVID-19, local school closings, and mass cancellations of other Chicago-area classes and events, Ravenswood Shorin-ryu Karate Dojo has decided to clear the remainder of our March training schedule pending further reports.

While we do not find it healthy to give into hysteria, it doesn’t hurt to err on the side of caution at this time – particularly since karate is a close quarters, contact activity. We recommend our regular membership maintain their personal practice during this period as a part of maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
