About Bubishi Martial Arts

At Bubishi we teach Shukokai Karate; which is a Shito-Ryu based traditional Japanese Karate. SHU-KO-KAI means WAY-FOR-ALL and was first developed in 1949 by Chojiro Tani in Kobe, Japan. Shukokai was later established in Australia by Sensei Alan Murdoch in 1972. The Hervey Bay dojo was established by Sensei Glen Smith in 1992 and became a full time training facility in 2002. Sensei Glen passed away in 2021 and the training facility is now run by his daughter Sensei Kahlia. The Shukokai karate dojo and Bubishi Martial Arts training facility are the the Fraser Coast regions longest running full time martial arts facility. At Bubishi our aim is to develop self respect, self confidence, coordination and fitness in a safe environment.
