Discover the unique world of goju-ryu, a traditional Okinawan martial art created by Grand Master Chojun Miyagi. The name ‘Goju’ signifies the ‘hard-soft’ style, a distinctive feature of this art that combines strong attacks with gentle defenses, making it a fascinating and effective form of self-defense.

Our class strongly emphasizes physical fitness, utilizing the Junbi Undo method. This unique approach, developed by martial arts masters and health professionals, is designed to enhance your physical condition and prepare your body for the rigors of martial arts training.

The core of our practice is Kata, a martial arts routine combined with specific breathing patterns and visualization used to teach various self-defense techniques.

Rounding out the program are pre-arranged two-person drills to put into practice the self-defense movements taught in the kata. We do not practice free sparring. This program is unique as we explore the emotional and spiritual components of a traditional civilian self-defense art.
