Both the ISKKF and OHKA are traditional Okinawan martial arts organizations. All of our certificates have the royal seal of the Ryukyu Kingdom and the Sho Dynasty, the royal family of the  Ryukyu Kingdom. This seal represents the authority of the Okinawan king and commemorates the dynasty that existed during the 1700s, the early days of karate’s development on Okinawa. The  ISKKF and OHKA have this unique distinction.
