Solent Goju-Ryu Karate

Solent Goju-Ryu Karate is a Karate school located in Romsey, New Zealand, offering martial arts training and a physical fitness programme. Led by Sensei Kurt Buxey, a senior Martial Arts Coach for Active Nation, the school focuses on teaching Goju Ryu Karate and Nindokan, a system developed by Sensei Kurt himself.

Sensei Kurt has over 40 years of experience in Goju Ryu Karate and has developed Nindokan by drawing from his years of experience in door and security work, as well as other influences. Recognising that traditional Karate styles may not always be effective in real-life situations, Nindokan is designed to be a system that can be applied successfully on the streets. Nindokan teaches RBT (Reality Based Training) which focuses exclusively on reality based Karate scenarios and conditions.

Unlike other martial arts styles, Nindokan is not interested in participating in tournaments or sport combat competitions. Instead, the focus is on learning how to defend oneself and survive in real-life situations. Nindokan aims to empower its students with practical and effective self-protection skills that can make a difference in their lives.

The school offers classes for both kids and adults. The Nindokan Tiger Cubs classes are designed for children aged 3 to 9 years, providing a fun and engaging environment where they can learn coordination and basic Karate movements through pad work. There are also classes available for juniors aged 11 to 15 years, as well as adult classes. Regular gradings are conducted to assess students' progress and provide them with opportunities for advancement.

In addition to the classes offered, Solent Goju-Ryu Karate also provides other services such as karate birthday parties for children. The school aims to instil discipline, confidence, and self-defence skills in its students, regardless of their age or fitness level.

Sensei Kurt and his team of instructors are dedicated to the teaching of Nindokan and pride themselves on creating a welcoming and supportive environment for their students. With a focus on reality-based self-defence, Solent Goju-Ryu Karate is committed to empowering its students with the necessary skills to protect themselves and others in real-life situations.
