The Founders of Homann Karate Do:

Grand Master Bill Homann

Bill has an incredible wealth of knowledge and vast experience in the martial arts. His lengthy career in karate is highlighted by his instruction of pressure point techniques (tuite) which is incorporated within his F.E.D. system (Fast, Effective, and Deadly). This highly effective self-defense approach uses both small circle jiu-jitsu and strikes upon specific pressure points on the body. Many students that have learned his techniques find his instruction both challenging and rewarding on a physical and mental level.
