Authentic Traditional Karate Classes For:

“Joining Gold Coast Chito-Ryu Karate has been life-changing. The people here are all skilled, patient, helping not only me improve my technique and confidence but also many others. My fitness has improved, and I’ve met a wonderful community of kind individuals. I highly recommend Gold Coast Chito-Ryu Karate to anyone interested in martial arts.”

Xaviar T.

“Coming from a different martial arts style – I have found my tribe! I was immediately treated with friendliness and respect from all levels. Sensei Adam and the senior instructors are beyond reproach with respect to teaching and observation. Furthermore, they’re mature in their approach, nurturing, inclusive and deeply understanding that everyone’s path and commitment levels are different. The dedicated and purpose built Dojo gives one a feeling of authenticity. Chito Ryu has many unique techniques that once understood make you realise this is a highly formidable style.”

Ramesh S

“We would highly recommend the Chito Ryu Karate Dojo to anyone wanting their child to find grounding and guidance mixed with fun and play.  Sensei Adam is one of the kindest, most encouraging teachers we’ve met in a very long time and are so glad we found such a wonderful place to grow together.”

Improve Fitness

Karate improves all over body fitness and strength. Regular healthy activity is key to a happy life.

Self-Defence

We all want to avoid violence, but if we have no choice then we want to have the skills required to protect ourselves and our loved ones.

Anti-Bullying

The best counter for bullying is self-confidence, a clear mind, and the ability to defend ourselves if required. This is all developed through the study of authentic karate.

A commitment to teaching Authentic Traditional Karate

At Gold Coast Chito-Ryu Karate we pride ourselves on teaching real karate that develops strong minded, strong spirited and very skillful karate practitioners.

Don’t get caught out investing time and energy in a karate school or style only to find out down the track that the karate taught is only a basic level with no path for further development. Come to the right place first and set yourself up for a life time of karate training and it’s associated benefits.

A passion for creating great people

Karate is not about being the biggest, baddest person on the planet. Karate is about developing life skills and habits that will see you achieve amazing things. The fact that you will learn incredible skills defend yourself, your loved ones, or those in need is just a bonus.

Self-discipline

Self-discipline is the key to success. Through karate training you develop the drive and motivation to do what has to be done because it is is what you need to do not just because someone tells you to do it.

Continuous Support

Karate can be explained as an individual activity in a team environment. In the dojo you will not only have the support of your sensei and other instructors but also the continuous support of your karate community.

Full-time Centre

We are not a small dojo training in a hall that could disappear the next day. We are dedicated to the future of our students and have committed to them by operating a full time fully equipped centre.

Ranks are Earned

If your goal is just to have a black belt then we recommend going somewhere else, you will get your black belt a lot quicker and easier.
However if you want to earn a black belt that you can be proud of then this is the right place for you.

Like Minded People

Finding passionate like minded people, the kind of people that have good values and understand that results come from effort are not easy to find. At Gold Coast Chito-Ryu Karate we have those kind of people whether they be our students or our parents that want the best for their children.

“Whilst the skills of karate to defend yourself are very valuable, they are also only one small part of what karate-do is. Training in karate provides skills that can transcend all areas of your life”
