Mizuchi Dojo

Mizuchi Dojo is a karate school in Williamsville, NY that also hosts a school in Wing Chun, Buffalo Wing Chun, and a yoga business, JoyYoga. The owner and instructor, Master Bill Reynolds, earned a 6th degree in Isshin-ryu and a 2nd degree in American Kenpo. He teaches Mizuchi-do, the “way of the dragon”,  a martial art system that evolved from his practice of Isshin-ryu. It was developed to return his practice of karate to what he felt was more classical, consistent with its Okinawan origin and the spirit of karate training prior to the late-20th century, while still holding on to much of what is great about Isshin-ryu. The name of the system is also intended to honor the founder of Isshin-ryu, Master Shimabuku, whose nickname was “dragon man”.
