Grant's NIDAN poster, 2005
i have studied studied shorin ryu shidokan karate-do, an okinawan martial art form, since 1995. I reached shodan (first degree) black belt in 2001, and nidan (second degree) in 2005, and sandan (third degree) in 2008. I study and teach at Chick Gavitt's Ichiban Karate School in Wakefield, Rhode Island. This is a very family-friendly school, and everyone is welcome to visit and see for themselves.
