Judo is the way to the most effective use of both physical and spiritual strength.  By training in attacks and defenses it refines your body and soul and helps you make the essence of Judo a part of your very being. 

In this way you are able to perfect yourself and contribute something of value to the world.  This is the final goal of Judo discipline.

The Hoteikan System seeks to establish perfection of character, spiritual and physical well being, and dedication to the Martial Arts. These principles are reflected in the Hoteikan Dojo Kun. The System has three major components: Jujitsu, Karate, and Judo. These are taught individually, or in combination with the parent Hoteikan Art.


In addition to these major Arts, the Hoteikan System has taken the very best of many other Arts to form a complete System with self preservation and the perfection of character in mind. To this goal our members from around the nation meet 2 times per year to share these ideals and continue our journey through the Martial Arts, under the tutelage of Shodai Soke Emilio Claudio and Soke Santiago Armstrong.


We currently have thousands of students and members around the world, both in the Military protecting our country and in the private sector. In addition, we have member schools in: New York, Arizona, Georgia, and South Dakota.


Our Mission is simple, The Hoteikan System is a complete Martial Arts system, come train with us and spread the word!
