Junior & Seniors (International Program)

Juniors (11-15 Year Olds) - An excellent program to introduce you child to the wonderful benefits of Martial Arts. Children learn basic striking and defensive skills, boxing combinations etc. all in a fun and dynamic class environment! Children must attend twice per week and can progress up through the rank of Blue Belt (5th Kyu) before deciding to commit to the Black Belt track program.

Once the student has achieved their Blue Belt (5th Kyu) and their family express serious interest in going the distance to the Black Belt level, they are eligible for the elite Black Belt training program via the "BLACK BELT CLUB". 

The club is not for those students that train recreationally, miss class or don't train hard. If the student does not make the club it is in no way a negative to that student. They continue to get excellent training and recognition for their efforts in every class. The club is the track for those students whose ultimate goal is black belt and beyond! - The Black Belt Club is the Kaizen Gojukan.'s path to Black Belt! BBC students receive a special patch that distinguishes them from Non-BBC students! Students need 28 classes between belts to be considered for testing ( Black Belt candidates need 50 classes between their last brown belt test and black belt). Attending the weekly BBC only class is mandatory.

Seniors (16+ Year Olds) - The Kaizen Gojukan consider the different physical and mental capabilities that each student possesses. Each technique is broken down into straight forward learning steps so that the student doesn’t fail or becomes frustrated. Within the first couple of months, through regular practice you will gain greater command of your body and begin executing techniques with greater confidence.

Focussing on Physical Fitness, Self-Defense Skills, Pad Work Skills, Martial Arts Skills, Concentration
& Relief from Stress.
