Shotokan Karate for self defence and self improvement.

OUR KARATE STYLE

As part of the Japan Karate Association, Auckland we teach traditional Shotokan Karate to students of all ages using the JKA syllabus as well as more traditional teachings that focus on the practical application of Karate.

In alignment with Karate-do (the way), we place an emphasis on Karate as self-defence alongside aspects of personal development such as self-confidence and mental and physical well being.

This creates an excellent environment for young and old to improve their health and their lives in a safe and enjoyable environment through the art of Shotokan Karate Auckland.

Each class is unique but typically it will contain the following Karate training sections.

-Warm-Up

-Kihon: Karate Basics training of striking and blocking techniques

-Kata: Formal routines of Karate techniques.

-Kumite: Partner based striking and blocking practice

-Self Defence: Application of Karate in self-defence situations

Our Karate class is mixed of all ages and grades with typically 3-4 black belts teaching and assisting the various age/skill groups within the class. We are an Auckland based family club and emphasise health and enjoyment as part of Karate training. Many parents train alongside their children and progress together through the grading system.

KIDS KARATE

Kids Karate is a fantastic mind/body exercise system for the development of young bodies and minds. It can be particularly useful in 'burning' off some of that excess mental energy younger children sometimes have as well as allowing teenagers to build confidence and relieve stress at a time when they need to do so. Safety and fun are of course key attributes of Kids Karate in Auckland.

Within a few months of training at our Auckland dojo adults will find improved mental and phsyical health. As well as for personal benefits Karate can be a very strong bonding experience if you train with your child .
