Eternal Warrior Martial Arts is a family-owned martial arts training institute located in Sutherlin, Oregon, specializing in world-class instruction and curriculum for traditional karate and Kobudo.
We offer professional martial arts training for all ages 5+. We started nearly 20 years ago in San Diego, CA, and have gradually evolved into a premier coaching center for martial arts.
Learn Your Defense
We offer comprehensive training programs that help you grasp the physical and mental aspects of karate and Kobudo. Our programs not only empower you with real and practical self-defense techniques but also promote fitness, situational awareness, confidence, respect for others, self-discipline, and retention.
We strive to develop an indomitable spirit that helps you overcome the toughest of challenges in every sphere of life. Please note that we are traditional karate specialists who prioritize practical self-defense over tournament-style martial arts.
