If you're looking to bring out the best in yourself, you've found the right place. At Daruma Dojo, we believe that the warrior spirit is about transforming your body and mind into a place of physical and mental strength together with a winning mindset, both at the dojo and in life. When you put your heart into Karate, you will find all of this—and so much more.

We are a small school who are starting from the ground up. Our classes are small and focused, meaning you are sure to get the attention and coaching you need to be your best. You certainly won't feel like a face in the crowd, but part of a team. 
Sensei Nolyn Sprouse has competed on the National level and, in addition to being successful for himself, has coached many other athletes at that same level. Contributing to the success of many youth and adult athletes both in competition and in traditional training, Sensei Sprouse is uniquely qualified in the Richmond area to make you the best Karate practitioner you can be.
Whether your aim is self defense, sport, or to connect with the tradition of Karate-do, we can help you set a course to fulfill your goals.
