The Kanzen Karate Do family is deeply saddened by the passing of Shihan Dale Coker.
Sensei Larry had the privilege of training with Shihan Dale throughout the 1990s, and he was an important influence during Sensei Larry’s early years in karate. His knowledge, dedication, and example left a lasting impact that continues to be carried forward today.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, students, and all who had the honor of knowing and training with him.
Rest in peace, Shihan Dale. Your legacy will live on, and you will be deeply missed.
