JKS Americas is the official site for Japan Karate Shoto-renmei (JKS) in North and Latin America. JKS strives for a non-political organization and is based on world famous Master Asai's karate. We welcome all traditional Karate practitioners and dojos who wish to practice Asai style karate. This site not only provides information about our organizations, activities, and philosophies, it also provides assistance to those that are interested in becoming affiliated with us.

JKS no longer supports or sanctions IJKA (International Japan Karate Association).
