An excellent dojo, very welcoming, and the encouraging and supportive instructors have reinvigorated my interest in martial arts after a long absence. Better still has provided a new and engaging activity for my four year old son who loves every minute of his training, and he is loath to miss a single session. Would recommend anyone thinking of taking up martial arts consider Tora Shotokan Karate-Do.
Shotokan at its best

Tora Shotokan Karate-Do is exactly what I look for in Shotokan Karate. The instructors strive for perfection, and the mastery of an art. The instructors are skillful, yet humble. They are fanatic, yet relaxed and approachable. Being a spin-off from Tora-Shotokan Karate in Tasmania, they teach the ways of Xepapas Sensei, who himself has been passing on the teachings of Kase Ha, one of the few grand masters of Shotokan. I can go on for ages, but to get a taste of it, there is just one thing you can do, really, . .. come along for a practice training! There is something to be found for everyone - young and old, experienced or new to martial arts.

I have trained with 4 Shotokan dojos in my karate career and this is by far and away the best.
The instructors are extremely knowledgeable and approachable. They make each training session interesting and enjoyable.
The students are friendly and welcoming and are more than happy to speak to new comers and make them feel at home.
I can not recommend this club highly enough.
I really enjoy training here. It's an excellent Dojo with very skilled and passionate instructors, and very friendly and welcoming students as well. Really recommend it!
