North Huntingdon Martial Artist Sensei Bill Viola Sr. founded the organization nearly forty five years ago and since taught tens of thousands students over his career.

Viola explains, “Even though so many students have trained with me over the years, its only an elite group that earn the rank of black belt from Allegheny Shotokan. I believe in quality over quantity, when it comes to wearing that particular belt.”
