Welcome to Eastleigh Goju Ryu Karate Do
We are a small, friendly dojo dedicated to the teaching of traditional Okinawan Goju Ryu karate to the next generation.
Sensei Jason Roe (5th Dan) teaches all aspects of Goju Ryu karate, using traditional warm up techniques, kata, sparring and pad work to improve your physical strength and stamina; also focusing on how these techniques can be adapted from this traditional marital art to be used in real life for self-defence.
Goju Ryu comes from the island of Okinawa, and the Okinawan people have a proverb: 'Ichariba-chode' roughly meaning once we meet we are family. This has become our unofficial club motto as it reflects how we see our dojo and its members. We may only train together a couple of times a week, but we forge friendships that extend far further than the dojo door.
Eastleigh Goju Ryu Karate Do is proudly affiliated to the English Goju Ryu Karate-Do Association (EGKA) and the International Goju Ryu Karate Federation (IOGKF). Being part of these two great associations opens up opportunities to train with some of the best instructors in the world every year through many national and international events. Visit our club photos page to see some of the places we have visited through our training.
We are based in the centre of Eastleigh, with very easy access from Southampton and Winchester by road or rail.
