2024 Ishinryu Karate Class Timetable
Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced martial artist, we have a variety of classes throughout the week to suit you.
Karate Competition Squad
Our competition squad is for all students wanting to improve their competition preparation and performance, whether you choose to compete regularly or not. The program is designed to improve all aspects of karate, including technique, physical fitness and mental preparedness.
One of the best things about the competition squad is that it is open to all teen and adult students, regardless of experience level. The only requirement is a willingness to learn, improve and take on new challenges!
Family Classes at Ishinryu Karate
Tuesdays and Saturdays at the Sutherland Shire’s Ishinryu Karate dojo are family days! Classes are split by grade (belt level) and students of all ages can train together. This is especially popular for the many families who train with us as Mum and Dad can be in the same class with the kids (and the kids love that too).
Teens and Adults Karate Class
Our karate class for both teens (13+) and adults has proven to be incredibly effective, with many parent/child combinations finding their fit in each session. The energy and flexibility of youth, combined with the analytical minds (and energy!) of adults, make for a vibrant and productive training environment.
8-12 Years Karate Class
Ishinryu Karate’s 8-12 years class is tailored to students who are either new to martial arts or transitioning from our 4-7 Years Karate-Skills Classes, and follows the syllabus that will guide them to black belt and beyond. Classes during the week are split by age, ensuring every student has the social engagement and targeted instruction to facilitate their constant incremental improvement.
Active kids vouchers are accepted.
4-7 Years Class
Ishinryu has developed a specific curriculum for our 4-7 year olds. This 30 minute class is ideal for instilling basic self-defence techniques and skills such as coordination and confidence, in a games-based and disciplined environment.
Active Kids vouchers are accepted.
