Welcome to Miyagi Kan I. K. O Goju-Ryu Karate Do in Revesby, Sydney. Miyagi Kan is a highly respected and renowned Karate organisation in Australia, founded by Hanshi George Barounis, a 9th Dan black belt, in 1976.
Hanshi Barounis trained in the traditional ways of Karate-do in Japan before bringing his knowledge and expertise to Australia.
Miyagi Kan offers training for adults and children of all ages and skill levels. By learning Karate, you not only enhance your ability to defend yourself, but also improve your strength, flexibility, agility, coordination, and overall confidence and wellbeing. We believe in the holistic benefits of karate training, not just as a form of self-defence but also as a means to enhance physical and mental health.
