SHÚSHIN KAI GOJU-RYU KARATE-DO
February, 2013
CLUB INFORMATION

PRINCIPAL INSTRUCTOR: Graeme McConnell-Brown (Shihan) 5th Dan.
CHIEF INSTRUCTOR: Lincoln McConnell-Brown (Sensei) 4th Dan.

INCORPORATION: The club is an incorporated body under the provisions of the Associations Incorporation Act 1981 (Victoria) under the name Japanese Karate Academy Inc. The Rules of Association are available to you through your instructor. Shúshin Kai Goju-Ryu Karate-do is a Member Dojo of Ichikawa-ha Goju-ryu Karatedo Sosui-kai, (Tsubamoto Sensei 10th Dan Kaicho), Tokyo, Japan. Under the instruction of Sensei Kazunobu Tsubamoto, Shushin Kai practices Ichikawa-ha Nihon Goju-Ryu and Sensei Ichikawa's Nihon Koshu-do. Shushin Kai is the only school in Australia with direct lineage to Ichikawa-ha Goju-ryu Karatedo Sosui-kai.

KARATE STYLE: The club teaches Goju-Ryu Karate. Real Go-Ju (hard-soft) is difficult to find and practice.

Shushin Kai practices the real goju passed down through generations of karate masters and includes the most recent teachings of Ichikawa Sensei and our own teacher, Tsubamoto Sensei. Shushin Kai also practices the esoteric martial art of Nihon Koshu-do, which was created and named by Grandmaster Sosui Ichikawa. It is a development of Goju-Ryu beyond the Miyagi - Higa lineage, and includes Grandmaster Ichikawa's own research, development and teachings

TRAINING: Training sharply focusses on goju-ryu specific warm-ups and stretching, strong emphasis on basics, kata and self defence applications drawn from kata practice. We do not practice karate as a sport, but rather as an esoteric and real karate-do.

UNIFORM/PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: We can arrange for you to obtain a karate uniform (dogi) and the necessary protective equipment. Only a full white traditional karate uniform may be worn whilst training although you may wear any loose fitting clothing such as a t-shirt and tracksuit pants when you first start lessons. It is expected that you will obtain the correct uniform and protective equipment soon after you begin karate training. In time, stud....
