Karate Introduction
Karate Jutsu Kai is an internationally acclaimed style of Karate-do affiliated to the IBK (International Kyokushin Budokai Kan).
The style continues to evolve in today's society providing a firm basis for self-defence and a fitness regime, which challenges students both physically and mentally. Over time students soon develop a martial attitude and a clear understanding that Karate Jutsu can be implemented not only in combat, but in everyday life. In short, one learns to fight, so one does not need to fight, and as such, each person evolves with confidence, dedication, respectful values and a core belief that Karate-do is a constant study of oneself.
The FunStart Dojo Phuket is the HQ of South-East Asia Karate Jutsu Kai Association under the direction of Kancho Bernard Creton (9th Dan) and Dai Shihan John Wilson (6th Dan). The dojo itself is under the guidance and instruction of Shihan Darren Brinkman (5th Dan) who is himself still under the perpetual tuition of Kancho Bernard Creton. Sensei Darren has been tasked with continuing the martial discipline, which he believes has proven so successful over the years.
At FunStart Dojo Phuket, beginners are welcome and initial training is in shorts or tracksuit bottoms with T-shirts. Beginners should be open minded, patient and prepared to take on new challenges.
