About Mandurah Goju Ryu Karate
Mandurah Goju Ryu Karate is a traditional Okinawan karate school operating out of John Tonkin College in Mandurah, part of the long-established South West Goju Ryu Karate Do Association. With instruction in Mandurah running since 1990, it offers an authentic and disciplined grounding in Goju Ryu for students of all ages, from juniors through to adults.
The school teaches a comprehensive syllabus that goes well beyond basic kicks and punches, covering close-range fighting, circular techniques, ground skills, traditional Okinawan weapons and practical knife defence. This breadth gives students a genuine, well-rounded martial arts education rooted in the traditions of the style, delivered by an experienced and accredited senior instructor.
Training takes place on weekday evenings, with separate sessions for juniors and for teenagers and adults, and private lessons are available on request for those who want focused one-on-one development. The school suits families looking for a structured activity for their children, teenagers and adults wanting authentic traditional karate, and anyone in the Mandurah and Peel region drawn to discipline, self-defence and the depth of a classical Okinawan system taught by a highly ranked instructor.
