"The spirit of Kyokushin is to overcome oneself, not others" (Sosai Mas Oyama : Founder and Father of Kyokushin Karate)

Juniors Kyokushin Karate is no different to the adults in terms of the techniques learnt and the syllabus; however it is not 'full contact'. The juniors knowledge of the basics and foundations of Kyokushin are the same. Sparring for juniors is limited to ippon kumite (points sparring - non contact sport style) and also continuous sparring where students wear protective padding and are only allowed to make light contact to the body. Ippon teaches control and explosive fast technique whereas continuous provides reality which is very important for self defence.

EMAA also offers seminars with other martial arts instructors throughout the year - Arnis, Aikido, Jiu Jitsu, Yoga, Meditation etc. This way our training is more holistic. Our members come from melbourne, eltham, eltham north, research, warrandyte, diamond creek, greensborough, montmorency, templestowe, briar hill, lower plenty, plenty, bundoora, watsonia, viewbank, yallambie, st helena and kangaroo ground.
