About Kodenkan Martial Arts & Fitness of Tucson
"The greatest gift one can receive in life is knowledge."
Professor Joseph Holck

Kodenkan of Tucson has been a Tucson tradition since 1961. 

Most of the styles that are taught originated in Japan but came to the U.S. by way of Hawaii, through the teachings of Professor Henry S. Okazaki.  Professor Okazaki was the first Japanese martial artist to teach the martial arts to non-Japanese students, regardless of race or gender.

The Holck family, led by Shihan Roy Holck, and followed 2 years later by Dai-Shihan Joseph Holck, brought Professor Okazaki’s teachings to Tucson in 1961.  For over 45 years the Holck Family has trained generations of Southern Arizonans in Jujitsu, Judo and Kajukenbo Karate.
