I started both my children, 6yrs and 8yrs at the beginning of term 3 this year. We had been to martial arts classes elsewhere before but it became much too expensive to commit to. JKA is extreme value for money with the classes they have per week for each age group.

Highly recommend JKA Karate Brisbane. My son loves doing Karate here. They do a great job of teaching Karate, but in the process the students learn so much more. They learn and use the Japanese Karate language, self discipline, self respect, respect for others, confidence, kindness, body coordination, leadership skills, etc. It's also great to see how proud the students are when they pass another grading.

My son was new to karate this year and Sensei Kasey and the team at JKA Karate were so welcoming. We love JKA and wouldn't go anywhere else! My son has learnt so much, gained a new skill and it has been great for discipline, respect for others and self respect.
