25.01.2022 2 EXCITING BRAND NEW CLASSES OPENING TONIGHT AT THE CABOOLTURE DOJO!! From 6-7pm we have our Green Belt and above Development Class for intermediate studen...ts who are seeking some extra training on Kata, Kumite and overall Karate improvement suitable for their level. Tonight Sensei Andrew Goodair and Sensei Shane Baker of the Burpengary Dojo will be teaching with other local Instructors as well so that it’s guaranteed to be an AWESOME first night. At the same time in one half of the Dojo Regional Instructor Sensei Andrew Howell will be teaching a fortnightly Black Belt Club for all Black Belts and for 1st Kyu Instructors to focus on Bunkai, advanced principles and strategies. These classes are not to be missed by those eligible to attend and are opening due to the popular demand from the hard working students and instructors in the area. See more

24.01.2022 HAPPY NEW YEAR AND WELCOME BACK! On behalf of Kancho and all of our senior teaching personnel, I’d like to wish you a ‘Happy January’ and welcome you back to ka...rate classes in 2019. I hope that this year can yield some momentous gains with your training as you continue on your inspiring path towards Black Belt and beyond. As you lay out your grading ambitions for this coming year, please remember that regular training in itself should be the seen as an empowering goal worth striving for. Gradings are exciting, but they are secondary to the act of maintaining a disciplined training regime throughout the average year’s many distractions. I say this because while you are training, you will invariably be the strongest version of yourself both mentally and physically. January usually represents the ‘honeymoon period’ for our new year resolutions, but the sense of self-discipline that karate training develops will keep the ‘iron in your spine’ for the entire years’ worth of schooling, work or other personal pursuits. Karate also breeds patience, and this is an essential quality when setting longer term goals. Most people over-estimate what they can achieve in a week but under-estimate what they can achieve in a year. It’s easy to become side-tracked or lured away by other seemingly more comfortable activities (Netflix comes to mind:). But remember the grass is always greener where you water it, so stay regular with your training and aim to continually uphold the spirit of Budo and the principles outlined in our Dojo Kun. Have a fantastic start to the year! Warm regards Shihan Gavin Samin Assistant Chief Instructor GKR Karate
