Join AMERICAN ISSHINRYU, INC.
Don Nagle brought Isshinryu to the United States and the rest is history. No one has made such an impact as Mr. Nagle. He was known as the "LEGEND". His successor, Grand Master Ed McGrath has handed the task to Mr. Temple to bring all Isshinryu stylists together under the Don Nagle banner. As of April of this year, we have formed a new non profit corporation called, AMERCIAN ISSHINRYU, INC. Why American Isshinryu? Well, it's not where an idea is born as much as where it grows and as we all know, Isshinryu has grown within the United States far beyond anyone's expectations. Mr. Temple looks to continue the Nagle legacy along with Mr Passero's events and Hall of Fame recognitions, but more importantly, keep Isshinryu in the focus of the public. He wants to bring Isshinryu to the forefront of all martial arts by providing each Isshinryu dojo with all the guidance and assistance required to keep our doors open during these difficult financial times. We will be hosting a seminar in October called a Day With The Masters showcasing some of the finest of Don Nagle's Black Belts. If you are interested in joining a select group of martial artists, contact us now at 908-561-6464 and we will be in contact. Attend one of our meetings to see first hand our direction, focus and motivation to make Isshinryu the best of the best!
