Etobicoke Karate Kyobukan

New students start with a two-class audition that carries no charge or fee. After the audition the dojo decides on membership, or you can join through a referral from a member in good standing.

The dojo welcomes students from ages 8 to 88. Beginners train alongside experienced students, so families and older adults share the floor.

No prior experience is required. The school teaches traditional Okinawan karate from the fundamentals up, and the free audition classes let you try it first.

Kyobukan teaches traditional Okinawan karate as Toronto Jundokan, with kata, breathing work, conditioning and two-person application practice. The chief instructor holds a 7th dan rank.
