WinnerCaliguri's Academy of Martial Arts3020 Leechburg Rd, Lower Burrell, PACaliguri's Academy of Martial Arts is the First and STILL THE BEST Karate School In Pittsburgh! The AMA was formed in 1971 by Shihan Caliguri who had previously taught in downtown Pittsburgh and in South Hills. The system of Karate taught at the Academy is an Open System. Open system means that there is not just one style being taught. This school adheres to the Shorin-Ryu (ancient or pine forest way), a system derived both in name and method from Shaolin Temple Boxing. Shorin-Ryu Karate is one of the oldest Okinawan systems. It has retained many of the original aspects of ancient fighting arts; yet, it has progressed when necessary to cope with modern concepts. We also train in the Washin-Ryu system. This is a Hard Style from Japan. The techniques are done with power and grace at the same time. Master Hidy Ochiai of New York is the head of the Washin-ryu system. -
