About

South Coast Shotokan Karate is run to serve our local community. We are qualified and experienced. Although our instructors volunteer to teach and manage the club, this keeps our fees lower than other martial arts providers yet we maintain high standards which means great value for members.

Our classes are designed for adults, teens and kids from beginner to black belt levels in North Nowra and Berry. Training for advanced levels also provided.

Members enjoy training all year in a safe and supportive environment with on-going development by attending regular training, a range of camps, seminars, tournaments and world class master instructor visits. Our reputation for traditional and effective karate, fitness and competition success continues to grow. Training includes basic and complex techniques, kata, non-contact sparring, fitness, stretching, self-defence applications, sport karate and weaponry.

Our club motto: dream - train - achieve is embodied by the Resident Instructor who began karate in the 1980s and, has competed in and taught karate since 2001. We are the only Shotokan Karate club in the Shoalhaven with direct affiliation with Shotokan Karate International Australia and Shotokan Karate International Federation. We teach the same karate as taught to us by Hirokazu Kanazawa Soke and other excellent senior Australian Black Belts, Japanese and overseas Instructors.
