About Our School

   Bassai Karate Academy opened in 1986 under the direction of Sensei Bruce Barkalow.  Since
that time Sensei Jerry Bomay, his instructors, and staff have formed one of the most honored and 
respected studios in Western Michigan.

   As a result of Bassai's dedication and commitment to first-class martial arts, the academy was
appointed the position of "Directors of Kissaki-Kai Michigan" in 2000, by Sensei Vince Morris
(7th Dan and head of Kissaki-Kai International.)  Bassai Karate Academy  has also been granted
the honor of representing Team Caique in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for Western Michigan.

   Throughout the school's existence Bassai has strived to provide quality martial arts to the Newaygo
Community and beyond.  We believe that every individual should be able to experience the positive,
life-changing benefits that martial arts training has to offer.

   We invite you to come in and experience for yourself the powerful growth that Bassai Karate Academy
has to offer.
