At Shiryodo Karate we use modern training methods that ensure training is a positive experience for all those who attend. The safety of the students is always the instructors number one priority, that way they can continue to enjoy and benefit from the experience for a very long time.

It is the goal of the instructors at Shiryodo Karate to make martial arts a positive experience for everyone. Some people may have vivid images of instructors resembling drill sergeants screaming at their students to give them 20 because they made a mistake. While this may be a true in some martial arts schools Shiryodo Karate does not operate this way.

People take up martial arts for many reasons, and the decision to do so in not only respected but commended as everyone can benefit and grow through the martial arts training. Rather than weed out all but the hardest, strongest and most determined we help develop the strength and determination of all through encouragement, positive reinforcement and mutual respect.

A high standard is achieved due to the self belief this instills in students, their desire to full fill their potential and the knowledge that they can and will with the support of those around them. Strong committed martial artists are a natural consequence of this environment, along with respect, discipline and courtesy.
