The strength of the Goju Ryu Australia Okinawa Goju Ryu Ryusyokai style of karate is in its balance of historical traditions with modern-day approaches. Goju Ryu (meaning ‘hard-soft style’) is the basis of our system. A theory that has been expanded over centuries, its roots are traceable to the small island of Okinawa.
On numerous occasions our team of instructors have trained in Okinawa, the birth place of karate. They bring a wealth of knowledge to students who wish to learn traditional Okinawan karate do and instill life skills in discipline, respect, self-control, coordination and self defence.
We have established a karate dojo that follows the traditional teaching methods with a modern approach to exercise and body mechanics, while always conforming to martial art principles.
