Robert Franklin Heisner (August 29, 1946 – March 7, 2024) was an American martial artist who founded the Bushido Kai karate system in October of 1989. Bushido Kai is a martial art comprising a combination of the seven different martial arts that Heisner was ranked in and various other styles in which he trained.[1]
Heisner was also a Christian minister who served as an evangelist,[2] pastor,[3][4] and Bible teacher. [5] In addition to the Bushido Kai system of martial arts, he founded a ministry called the Warriors of the Sword.[6]
