Welcome to the home page for the Santa Cruz branch of the Phoenix Karate-Do Association Kyokushinkai International.

We practice a traditional jissen-style martial art with ancient roots and modern practicality.

Our Kyokushin group meets five times per week under the guidance of Shihandai Brad Hoffeld, Sensei Melissa Yinger, and Sempai Andréa Maria Cecil Topper.

We welcome all who are interested in the martial way, self-defense, fitness, and the perfection of character.

The Phoenix Santa Cruz dojo knows, values, and stands for the importance of human life and dignity. We are committed to effecting real change not only in ourselves but in all students as part of our Budo heritage and the Phoenix Way.

Thank you for visiting our page.
