West Wind Karate Dojo established in Florida in 1976, and today is the Florida representative of the Nihon Shotokan Karate-do Federation. Our dojo is the functional arm of the Traditional Martial Arts of Sarasota Inc. - a non-profit organization designed to perpetuate the study of Karate as a cultural experience. Our chief instructor, Rick Hotton - Godan (5th degree black belt), has been guiding our dojo for the last 35 years, training for over 40 years. Rick Hotton has been nicknamed "The Technician".

As a traditional dojo, the holistic cultivation of the student takes precedence over the achievement of solely physical skills. The physical nature of Karate-do is the method or vehicle to achieve self-awareness, discipline and strength of character. The training therefore becomes a set of attainments associated with mental discipline. It involves poise and skilled movements. These reflect a frame of mind, a philosophy of life and a mode of communication. Although physically expressive on dynamic and precise movement, Karate training mentally cultivates a sense of inner peace and compassion. This mental and physical union present a balance in which the student's potential as an individual can be brought to fruition.
