Hi to all lovers of traditional GoJu Ryu Karate. We plan to move into our new dojo towards the end of June when our current lease at 27 Percy St expires. I believe council have ear-marked this building for subsequent demolition.
Our new premises are located in the Reidy Park Complex on O'Halloran Tce. A significant amount of material has been moved already but we still have gym equipment to go and all of our signage to go.Our new facility is large, neat and clean and we are are looking forward to this exciting move. Interested beginners of all ages are welcome to train with us in traditional karate which focuses on both kumite, kata and self-defence in a friendly, welcoming community environment.
