The Adelaide University Karate Club has been teaching traditional Gojuryu Karate since 1974.

We are non-profit so our method of teaching and areas of focus are unlike those you will find in a commercial club.

We are focused on teaching the essence of traditional Gojuryu Karate.

Chooi Sensei is the founder and chief instructor and has more than 30 years teaching experience. He holds a 5th Dan from All Japan Karate Federation Gojukai, the highest authority for Gojuryu Karate, and was previously the chairman of its Australian branch for more than 15 years. He is also an accredited coach and international referee.

Chooi Sensei trains directly under Masao Tada Sensei (8th Dan, All Japan Karate Federation Gojukai) and maintains close ties with Japan as well as senior international instructors. As a result of these ties, we often have the privilege of training with instructors from around the world.
