Individual memberships are extended to students and instructors under special circumstances. The Okinawa Karatedo Seijitsu Shin Do Kan Kyokai will allow individuals not associated with a dojo or instructor to register and advance after supplying proper credentials. These individuals will be allowed to advance after time-in-grade is accomplished. They will also be assigned a ranking instructor who will mentor the progression of students/ mudansha.

We encourage the head instructor of a dojo or training class to register their students.
All members must pay the fees set by the Okinawa Karatedo Seijitsu Shin Do Kan Kyokai in order to secure OKSSDK credentials and certification. All members are also required to stay current with their membership by renewing the same on an annual basis.
