The White Tiger Martial Arts Association was established in 1992 by Charles Buckner. We teach a form of Kenpo Karate created and developed in the United States. Together with several talented instructors, Charles Buckner has been teaching this style of martial arts and self-defense to children and adults from all walks of life. Our style utilizes eclectic forms and technical requirements for rank advancement, sport competition, and practical self-protection/defense. White Tiger draws influence from all of the following styles:
Japanese (Judo, Aikido, Jujutsu, and Shotokan Karate)
Chinese (Kung Fu and Chinese Kempo)
Korean (Tae Kwon Do and Hapkido)
Okinawan (Shorin Ryu and Isshin Ryu)
