Sensei Lyons pays spectacular attention to detail and blesses us with top notch technique. I've been here about a year and there is a reason I have rearranged my schedule to make sure I can attend classes. Kata is taught with passion, and proper application is emphasized both for self-defense and competitive utilization.
Sensei has been recognized as a highly skilled martial artist worthy of leading those who strive for their best within the art. There is a mutual respect , Zen vibes and support within this dojo. I've trained with many instructors who know what they are doing but I have yet to find someone as dedicated to honing and sharing their skills than the leader of this establishment. This dojo is a hidden gem that should be recognized by serious fighters as a place for growth, wellbeing, harmony, peace and combat education. It is with great honor that I say I am proud to be part of what Ken Lyons has built and plan to have a fulfilling future as a martial artist applying the sacred skills that he shares.

New England Shuhari is a world class dojo. I studied karate for over a decade before finding Sensei Ken and I can honestly say of all the Sensei I have trained with I put Sensei Ken at the top. The roots of knowledge go deep with direct ties to the originators. Sensei Ken is extremely knowledgeable, skilled and patient. You can feel his passion for karate and if you are a karate-ka that spirit is infectious and growth is an unavoidable beautiful by product. If you are new to karate you will fall in love with karate and start off with the strongest of foundations. New England Shuhari is not your run of the mill dojo ( you will earn everything) like with anything worth it you get what you put in.
