The Seido Junior Program teaches a modified karate syllabus, with the same grade structure as the adult program. The program introduces children to the many benefits of traditional karate training such as fitness, focus, respect, courtesy, self-defence and most importantly a non-quitting spirit.
We will teach you the true way of Karate, or ‘Karate-Do’, a way to develop total fitness: mind, body and spirit. Our introductory system allows you to ease into the training program slowly and safely. You progress at a pace consistent with your ability and level of fitness, to realise your true potential as a student of Seido Karate.
‘SEI’ — TRUTH, HONESTY, SINCERITY.
‘DO’ — WAY.
‘JUKI’ — A SMALL PLACE WHERE ONE GOES TO
STUDY, LEARN AND GROW.
‘OSU’ — AN EXPRESSION OF RESPECT and TO ACKNOWLEDGE INSTRUCTIONS
If you’re thinking about starting Seido Karate – whether you’re a beginner or have previous martial arts training – it’s best to contact us and organise a day and time to come in. Arrive 10 minutes before the class starts so that we can give you a quick tour.
The minimum age for starting classes is 7 years old. Kids classes are $229 per term. To start your child will need to enrol in a trial class. Trial classes are run at the start of each school term. We provide a karate uniform when you start. Please contact us to discuss enrolling your child in a trial class.
Every Monday at 6.30pm we hold free introductory beginners classes for you to try karate. Please wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing such as a t-shirt and full-length tracksuit pants (no shorts or skirts).
