Goju-ryu Karate’s origins lie in “Shaolin Kung Fu,” a
martial arts philosophy that traces back through history

“Move correctly rather than quickly” –
Practice emphasizes breathing, posture and awareness


Generally, sports have peaks.

However, traditional martial arts can continue to evolve as they deepen and gain knowledge as they grow older.

There are principles of self-defense that can only be understood through life experience.

Would you like to join us on the path of enlightenment, evolving and changing throughout our lives?


1. A teaching style that combines tradition and flexibility

  • A teaching policy that emphasizes balance of mind, technique, and body, and pursues perfection as a martial art.
  • In addition to face-to-face instruction, the hybrid system allows for online instruction , so you can take classes from anywhere, making it easy to continue.
  • It supports multiple languages , so anyone can participate from anywhere in the world.

2. “Slow Karate” class suitable for beginners and seniors

  • The slow movements put less strain on the joints and muscles, allowing you to move your body safely.
  • Tanden breathing is also effective in improving flexibility, balance, respiratory function, and posture.
  • Because you are conscious of your movements while doing this, it can be expected to have the effect of a “moving meditation” that improves concentration, as well as reduce stress and improve self-esteem .

3. High quality teaching and philosophy

  • A precise and theoretical curriculum based on the Goju-ryu Teaching Manual (author: Yamaguchi Gogen, published in 1977).
  • There are limits to accountable instruction that is based on the idea that “it’s always been this way.”
  • Instructor training = training of leaders with an emphasis on the transmission of martial arts and martial arts.
  • Creativity and ingenuity = Instruction using special equipment that will dramatically improve your free sparring skills.
  • The principles of ” health and longevity,” “self-defense,” and “non-war” = self-establishment that cultivates peaceful values.
  • Teaching based on a global perspective based on teaching experience in Europe and North America .

4. The training content is rich and systematic

  • It covers basic techniques (blocking, punching, kicking, continuous offense and defense) and a variety of forms (Tai Chi, Sanchin, Seisan, etc.).
  • It also provides a wealth of knowledge and technical information, including martial arts theory (posture, power, breathing, awareness) and equipment techniques (nunchaku).
