Bujutsu Martial Arts – Japan Karate Association Townsville, located in Kirwan, is a renowned martial arts school that offers training in Japanese Karate Association (JKA) Shotokan Karate. The JKA is the oldest and largest karate association in the world, known for its expertise in Shotokan Karate. As an affiliate of the JKA, Bujutsu Martial Arts is able to offer internationally recognised grades to its students.
At Bujutsu, the focus is on realistic training that can be applied to real-life situations one might encounter on the street. The instructors are skilled in teaching self-defence techniques against a wide range of attacks, including kicks, punches, knife attacks, and gun attacks. Students learn how to defend themselves and gain the confidence to disarm an attacker if necessary. While it is hoped that students will never have to use their self-defence skills, having them could potentially save their lives.
Karate, the core art taught at Bujutsu, is a striking martial art that utilises various techniques such as punching, kicking, knee and elbow strikes, as well as open-handed techniques like knife-hands. Additionally, grappling locks, restraints, throws, and vital point strikes are included in the curriculum. Bujutsu is also recognised and affiliated with the Australian Karate Federation, further solidifying its legitimacy as a traditional and respected martial arts school.
Prospective students who seek a legitimate traditional style, recognised worldwide with internationally recognised grades, are welcomed to try a free lesson at Bujutsu Martial Arts. The school offers training sessions every Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 6pm to 7pm, excluding school holidays. The training takes place at the Townsville Orchard Society Hall, conveniently located opposite 385 Charles Street in Kirwan, Queensland.
