Brief History of Club
Sempai Paul Lennox has trained in Goju Ryu karate for nearly 20 years, he began his training in Rangiora under Sensei Rob Stewart and continued to train under him until Sensei Rob suddenly passed away in December 2008. Sempai Paul is currently in Australia furthering his career and his security business along with furthering his karate knowledge, and comes back regularly to train with us.
Sempai Alan Ramsay started studying Goju Ryu 23 years ago along with some training in Judo and Jujitsu. He holds a strong knowledge of Kata and traditional Goju Ryu basics, some of which he learned when travelling in Okinawa.
