About Us

JKA Noble Park was established in 2002 as a member of the world’s largest karate organization - the Japan Karate Association. 

We practice a style of karate known as Shotokan - a dynamic martial art that utilises the entire spectrum of motion – namely fast and slow movement, expansion and contraction of the body and hard and soft techniques. The practice requires one to develop a strong foundation with a focus on balance, core strength, flexibility, movement and power generation. 

JKA Noble Park was founded on a strong karate passion and spirit. We strive for excellence in both the physical aspects of the art such as self-defense, fitness and competition as well as the mental and spiritual development of positive personal qualities such as confidence, perseverance, focus and respect – qualities useful in every aspect of life. 

 The structured JKA Karate approach allows for development of ones physical, mental and spiritual health through simple and effective techniques whilst utilising natural body movement to develop speed and sharpness. 

Beyond the physical actions, a karate environment requires one to utilise common life skills such as managing emotional states, performance under pressure, facing fears, problem solving, prioritising, planning and so on. These life skills are utilised in our day to day from social interaction, dealing with exams or job interviews, managing personal or professional goals or projects and so on. Fine tuning these skills in a safe and controlled environment with steady incremental growth can develop resilience against day to day pressures and stress and allow you to focus your mind and energy in the optimal direction.

JKA Noble Park instructors have been involved in karate for over three decades. 

Karate is our passion.

With numerous state and national titles and representing Australian in several world championships, we set the bar high during training and whilst we understand that not everyone wants to be an elite competitor, by setting the bar high you have the option to study and develop to whatever level you deem to be your peak.  

We cannot do the training for you, but if you are willing to apply yourself and commit to your own development then we will commit to helping you get there.
