SENSEI

Those who made the road before

Kimberly F. Dillman

Isshinryu lineage: Tatsuo Shimabukuro > Harry G. Smith > George A. Dillman > Kim Dillman
 

Kimberly Fritz Dillman has been born on May 6, 1953.

She started her martial arts training under George Dillman, a student of Harry G. Smith, in 1969.

Kim's style of karate is Ryuku (Okinawan) Kempo, that way she is not strictly an  Isshinryu karate-ka.

Kim kept on her studies until the present time and studied, in addition to George Dillman, with Prof. Wally Jay (Small Circle Ju-jitsu) and the late Prof. Remy Presas (Modern Arnis). She does not hold ranks in either of these systems.

Kim Dillman's current rank is 8th dan in Ryukyu Kempo.
