The American Karate System is the brainchild, and dream come true, of the late Mr. Ernest H. Lieb, the system's founder, and a 10th Degree Black Belt.  

When Ernie Lieb began instilling his philosophy of karate in his students, he practiced Korean Chi Do Kwan.    Because he felt there were areas of the style he had learned which required modification to accommodate the American physiological structure and attitude, Ernie developed what is today known as the American Karate System.

It's a system of techniques and strategies which are geared to provide a person with a means to effectively defend themselves in the event of a personal attack.    It employs blocks, punches, jabs, kicks, throws, joint locks, and breaks that can neutralize an attacker in the blink of an eye.    It's a system by which a person can condition their body physically and mentally arriving at a state of well being, self-confidence and control.

Few other forms of physical endeavor can do this. It's a sport that allows students to compete within their own school, or at regional, state, national or international tournaments.   It's an art form that allows a student to seek perfection and self-enlightenment through dedicated practice of both physical and mental techniques.   All of this is accomplished in English (with the exception being our German counterparts), as opposed to another language.   One who becomes totally immersed in their study of karate, or any martial art for that matter, will soon find it has become an integrated part of their very existence.

Today, the A.K.S. is practiced in many States within the continental United States and Germany.    In Germany, the A.K.S. is the only non-Asian style recognized by the German Karate Union (DKV) and the World Karate Federation.   No other American organization or style has accomplished this.   The A.K.S. was seen by the DKV to represent all of the best values and traditions of its stringent adherence to conservative traditional values in the study and practice of Karate.
