Welcome to Wadō-Ryū Benkyō

Here you will find a collections of resources for practitioners and enthusiasts of traditional Wadō-Ryū Karate. Led by Roger Vickerman Renshi (7th Dan) and team, our aim is to explore the art and philosophy of Wadō-Ryū in depth and make that journey available for fellow Karateka.

Through detailed video tutorials and in-person sessions — including three-hour analyses of kata, waza, and kihon — we aim to enhance the understanding, performance, and appreciation of this refined martial art. Each production reflects our dedication to authenticity, precision, and the spirit of continuous improvement.

More than just a learning resource, Benkyō is a community where karateka of all levels come together to deepen their knowledge, share insights, and support one another. Join our growing Wadō-Ryū family, connect with us on social media, and take part in a shared journey of martial excellence.
