Goju-Karate

Zen-Shin-Goju-Karate is a pure, Okinawan Karate style
“Goju” means HARD/SOFT
which can be interpreted as all techniques and Kata of Zen-Shin-Goju-Karate
can be performed on a scale of 1-10.

LEVEL 1
is soft almost Tai Chi like moves

LEVEL 5
is moderate and will contain variations between Level 1 and Level 5

LEVELS 5 - 10
are moderate to extreme power.

Some of the unique aspects of Zen-Shin-Goju-Karate are that you can vary your performance of technique and Kata as befits your daily feeling and physical condition.
All technique and Kata can be done with equal use of hand and fist.
Most training is performed in your usual basic stance e.g. right handed (right leg back, left fist forward) with no over emphasis on training the left side, as statistics show that you will always take the defensive position that you feel safest in.

We do not waste time in ineffective and unnecessary stretching or strength training exercises as there is more than enough physical training, body conditioning and strength and power improvement within the Zen-Shin-Goju-Karate style itself.

We do not normally kick above the waist, as this is not practical in most street situations.
We also believe that if an aggressor cannot walk he cannot fight, if he cannot see he cannot fight,
if he cannot breathe he cannot fight.

Zen-Shin-Goju-Karate believes in ”KOROSHI” i.e. 1 punch/kick finish.
Zen-Shin-Goju-Karate believes in pre-empting any actual threat of attack,
with the emphasis on the saying “it is better to be tried by 12 than carried by 4.
HIT HARD, HIT FAST, HIT FIRST.

Whatever your Karate style or grade, we can offer you an intensive remedial course, which will improve your technique and Kata, without altering your present style in any way, dramatically increasing your ability and chances of passing your next grading.
