CLASS TYPES:
The following is a brief explanation of the types of classes offered at the Sunshine Coast Dojo, the requirements for participation in them and the times at which they are held:
Kids classes:
Open to children from 5 years old to 12/13 (depending on capability and body condition). Students at the age of 13 will participate in a transition phase from the kids class to the adults class over time.
Yoshinkan Aikido Classes:
Fundamentals Aikido Classes are open to all levels from the very beginner to the black belt. Classes always focus on basic or fundamental movements and techniques in a heavily structured way, with lots of modelling.
Advanced Aikido Classes are open to those who have graded to an acceptable level of proficiency (approx. 5th Kyu depending on student abilities), demonstrate safe and capable ‘ukemi’ (breakfalling) skills, and those who display a good level of fitness. These classes assume students have a solid grounding in Yoshinkan Aikido fundamentals and can explore more difficult techniques and principles.
Carlos Machado Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Classes
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is one of the most dynamic contemporary martial arts in the world and our team at Carlos Machado Jiu-Jitsu Sunshine Coast is excited to bring it to you from the the curriculum of one one of the most senior and experienced names in BJJ in the world.
Shintō Musō Ryū Classes
Open to adult students who demonstrate the desire to deepen their training and life experience. Students in this traditional Japanese weapons class take on significant commitment through endless patience, sincerity and a willingness to learn things that are completely different from what they have done or learned in previous experiences. Furthermore, over time students in this class train with the expectation of developing a life based heavily on the Gojō – a value system with ‘benevolence’, ‘justice’, ‘etiquette’, ‘knowledge’ and ‘trust’ at its core.
