It's core training focus is on self defense and self improvement. It is directed by George Ciechanowicz one of only a few original Goju Kensha Australia senior instructors still actively teaching. He acknowledges his debt and gratitude to Ohtsuka Tadahiko Hanshi (the founder of the Goju Kensha) who remains his most important teacher and inspiration. At the same time he acknowledges the more recent influence of Patrick McCarthy Hanshi on elucidating the origins and real purposes of 'old school' karate practises. This outstanding teaching lineage ensures that Kin Shin Kai make great sense of traditional karate practises which are otherwise misunderstood by the majority of karate instructors. Moreover all our instructors are black belts. Most have more than a decade of martial arts experience and many have tertiary level teacher training, We care deeply about our students' development. While Kin Shin Kai's technical framework is based on Master Ohtsuka's Goju Ryu Karate it also draws from a diverse range of other traditional and modern sources. These include other Goju Ryu, Koryu Uchinadi, Shorin Ryu, Ju Jitsu, Judo, Iaido, White Crane Kung Fu, Aikido, Chin Na, Yamaneryu Bojutsu, Chen Tai Chi, Yang Tai Chi, Ba Gua Zhang. Kin Shin Kai in fact is open to assimilating useful methods from any source and is in that sense freestyle. For more information on Kin Shin Kai please select from the menus below or above.
