At OGKQld we offer 3 class options:-
Tiny Tigers
Our Tiny Tiger class is designed to introduce children to martial arts in a fun, active, and structured way. It promotes fitness, traditional karate values, and the development of self-confidence, self-respect, and personal growth.
Students learn the fundamentals of karate while building strength, coordination, and confidence. The curriculum is designed with their growing and developing bodies in mind, helping to enhance hand-eye coordination and gross motor skills.
Many children have flourished in our Tiny Tiger classes, developing skills that go beyond martial arts. As they advance, they seamlessly transition into our general class, training alongside adults and senior ranks to continue their martial arts journey.
General Class
Our General class is open to students aged 10 and up, welcoming all skill levels—from beginners to those with prior experience. Gōjū-ryū Karate has something for everyone! Fitness and strength are not obstacles—our fully accredited, internationally recognised Black Belt instructors will assess your abilities and guide you toward achieving goals you never thought possible.
The Gōjū-ryū system is highly adaptable, allowing modifications to stances and techniques to accommodate physical limitations such as knee or back issues. There is always an alternative technique to achieve the desired result.
For teenagers (13-17), our curriculum is designed to support their growing bodies while preparing them for adult life. Training emphasises overall health and well-being—building both physical and mental resilience.
Karate naturally improves fitness and core strength, and the connections made in training often lead to lifelong friendships with students from around the world.
Kime Class
The Kime class is designed for dedicated martial artists who have progressed to at least 3rd Kyu (Brown Belt). These sessions provide an opportunity to refine skills, deepen knowledge, and master the intricacies of karate.
Through advanced kata applications, self-defence drills, and partner work—including sparring—students enhance their technique, improve precision, and elevate their training to the next level.
