We Are Seienjuku karate Canada
Formerly Yoshukai Karate Canada, Seienjuku Karate Canada presents an opportunity to experience authentic Japanese-style karate right here in Victoria BC, Canada.
We are dedicated to preserving traditional aspects of martial arts through hard training combined with etiquette and discipline. Seienjuku karate classes consist of rigorous cardiovascular, strength, and flexibility exercises along with intense body conditioning and full-contact, bare knuckle fighting and self-defense techniques.
Students can further participate in classes of traditional kata and Ryukyu Kobudo (Okinawan weapons). Private lessons are also available by appointment.
Now accepting new students
We are currently accepting students 14-years of age and older, regardless of previous martial arts experience. Whether it be for fitness, confidence, self defense, or developing martial arts skill and knowledge, everyone can benefit by training Karate.
