Bugeido Shotokan Karate

Bugeido Shotokan Karate-do Australia is a member of Bugeido Australia. The Japanese word "BUGEIDO" translates as the ‘artistic way of the warrior’. Bugeido Australia was established in Sale, Victoria, when Geoff Reddish Shihan commenced teaching the combined disciplines of Karate-Do and Jiu-Jitsu in August 1977. The formation of the B.K.A. was preceded by the founding of the Sale Karate school in 1975. Accordingly, more emphasis is placed on the "ART" of Karate than on any other aspect. To this end, the traditional objectives of self control, self discipline and humility are foremost in our teaching. The organisation moved to Tasmania in 1985 where there are Dojos located in the north and south of the State and recently affiliate dojos opened in Victoria and Japan.

All administrative costs of the organisation are covered by the student annual membership fee. This fee will be reviewed from time to time to ensure costs are met.
