Aloha fans of American Sport Martial Arts and USAdojo.com readers! In 1946 Master Robert Trias opened the first sport karate studio and history began. We didn’t know it at the time, but sport martial arts tournaments would change the sport world. We will not let the sport part of the martial arts be forgotten because it did indeed touch many lives. We are dedicated to keeping sport martial arts history alive through all that we do, The Living Legends Celebrity Roast, seminars and through our articles. Our Opening Statements are made by what Mike Stone, who many peers call “Martial Arts first Superstar and undefeated Champion and by the Great Grand Master Sid Campbell, who we lost last year, and by Master Duane Ethington, writer of over 500 martial art stories. The museum library is name after Master Ethington. Iif you have any DVD’s or pictures, anything that would make this Sport Martial Arts Museum more entertaining and educational please share them with us. You can email me at hawaiirock@yahoo.com
