The complete
martial art

Kudo Daido Juku is genuine full-contact — Karate striking combined with throwing and grappling from judo and jiu-jitsu, trained with real intensity. It's demanding, physical and complete: a modern budo for people who want the real thing.

We're proud to be the only Kudo dojo on the Sunshine Coast, and an officially affiliated member of the Kudo International Federation. This is the extreme end of what we teach — a serious martial art for serious training.

It is not a beginners' class. If you're new to martial arts, watch the preview below, then start with our traditional Karate and progress at your own pace — or have a chat with us first.

Training with us

Kudo classes run in the evenings and are reserved for experienced martial artists — this is full-contact training, not a first step into martial arts.

If you've got a background in Karate, judo, BJJ, boxing or MMA, you'll feel right at home. If you're newer, talk to us first: we'll point you to the right starting point so you build up safely.

Come and watch or have a chat any time. If you're ready to train, book a trial and we'll take it from there.

  1. Arrive 10 minutes early

    Time to sign in, meet us and settle in without rushing.

  2. Wear comfortable clothes

    Anything you can move in, plus a water bottle. That’s the whole list.

  3. No Gi (Uniform) needed

    Nothing to buy before you start — we’ll have one to try on if you’d like.

  4. Meet your instructor

    They’ll introduce themselves, learn your name, and walk you through what’s coming.

  5. Leave having succeeded

    Every first class is built so you finish having done one thing well.
