Note:	This by far one of the best schools I have seen. Traditional values and complete instruction from a real certified instructor. The students are very disciplined and technical in their ability. Mr. O#39;Riley has the patience of none other I have seen.
Details:	Founded October 1st, 1994, O'Riley Karate Centers in Antioch and Smyrna, TN are under the direction of founder and chief martial arts instructor Sensei Steve O'Riley. Beginning his training in Wado-Ryu in 1984, under the guidance of 7th Dan Taylor Hayden, O'Riley-San received his Black Belt in June of 1988, currently holds the rank of Roku-Dan (6th Degree Black Belt) and holds the honor of having trained personally under Shihan Cecil T. Patterson. O'Riley-San was presented with the 1998 Associate Dojo of the year by Master Instructor Taylor K. Hayden, Chief instructor and Head of the board of directors/USEWF (United States Eastern Wady-Ryu Karate Federation). An avid and successful competitor, Sensei O'Riley has earned title after title in both kata and kumite, most notably, winning the USEWF kumite Championships a record seven years, and being named fighter of the decade at the 2000 USEWF Championships. In addition, he holds the distinction of being a recipient of the President's Award in 1998 and 2002, one of the USEWF's most prestigious honors for service to the Federation, and awarded by Shihan Patterson himself. O'Riley-san fulfilled another chapter in his Wado career by traveling to England and participating in the 2004 Winter seminars under Grandmaster Hironori Ohtsuka II, Sensei Masafumi Shiomitsu and other dedicated Wadoka from around the world, for three days of intensive, advanced training.
