About Us

The IKO Group Australia

The IKO Group Australia headed by Hanshi Theodore Tsanidis 9th Dan was formed in 1972 as an organization teaching Goju-Ryu Karate to both males and females of all ages. Since inception, the IKO Group Australia has been affiliated with the IKO Group Japan and has taught hundreds of students traditional and authentic Budo (Japanese martial arts) as passed down through the centuries.

Here at IKO, we believe in perfecting the elements of the mind, body and spirit through a myriad of exercises and basic movements that are gradually fused into the psyche enabling spontaneous reactions.
