Owles' Karate & Kobudo Dojo
Proudly serving Pearland since 2008
Our dojo offers world class instruction in traditional Okinawan Martial Arts for Pre-School, Youth, Teen and Adult students. The self-discipline, self-defense and physical fitness skills that our students learn in class help prepare them to overcome adversity in all aspects of life.
In May of 2022, we moved from a space on Pearland Sites Rd, that we had shared with an MMA gym since 2009, to our current location on Old Alvin Rd. In October of 2023, our dojo celebrated its 15th anniversary.
We take pride in our small class sizes and hands on approach to traditional martial arts training. We are family owned and operated and in our dojo, students are family.
