The Japan Karate Association (JKA) of Chicago, established in 1963, specializes in teaching Shotokan karate, a traditional Japanese martial art that emphasizes empty-handed fighting and self-defense. The dojo employs innovative teaching methods to enhance students' technical skills and performance.

Originally founded as the Chicago Karate Club by Walter Nakamoto in 1962, the dojo was renamed in honor of head instructor Shojiro Sugiyama, who was invited from Japan to guide the training. The JKA of Chicago invites those interested in martial arts to visit and observe their classes.
