What is the Online Karate & Fitness Academy?

Born out of the immense popularity of our online training resources during the challenging times of the Covid lockdowns, this project has been developed and refined over the last 3 years and is now ready to serve the global karate community.

The GKR Online Karate & Fitness Academy has 2 key components:

ON-DEMAND CONTENT

An extensive syllabus-oriented training video library, created by some of GKR’s most senior instructors, Kyoshi Shihan Anthony Ryan, Renshi Shihan Alex Pereda, with help from Sensei Rebecca Zaloumes.

The growing library currently consists of over 240 videos, covering techniques, class formats, workshops, and train-along sessions from white to black belt levels. This resource supplements your dojo training, offering valuable insights and accelerating your progress.
LIVE STREAMING CLASSES

Led by our exceptional team of instructors, including Renshi Shihan Jan Lopez, these daily classes will be broadcast from our purpose-built studios in Sydney and Manchester UK. Whether you’re looking to complement your in-dojo sessions or overcome schedule constraints, these live streams offer flexibility and accessibility, ensuring you can train effectively from the comfort of your home.

If you would like to explore the site, we invite you to take part in our 5 Step Self Defence Challenge available here. While you are taking the challenge you will receive a week’s free access to the Academy and we would encourage you to check it out!

Remember that existing students are eligible for heavily discounted online memberships, making it the perfect time to enrich your karate journey with this invaluable resource.

We look forward to seeing you at the upcoming seminar and in the Online Academy!

Why GKR Karate?

GKR creates the right environment for our members to train in. Although we promote self defence and fitness, our style also fosters positive values, confidence, discipline, focus and well being. GKR teaches you not only how to punch and kick, it teaches you to be a better person.

We encourage students of all ages, from all walks of life to join our club and be part of the supportive ‘family’ that is GKR Karate.

Self Defence

Synonymous with martial arts, self defence and inner self confidence are one of the key takeaways from regular training. From the age of 5 GKR teaches basic self defence and extraction moves, continuing right through to our senior grades.
Weight Loss

Karate is a great way to lose or maintain a healthy weight, with most classes consisting of aerobic, stretching and toning activities. For those who may not have exercised in some time, GKR provides a supportive environment where students can train at their own pace and physical ability. Our classes are a mixture of men, women and children of all ages.
Focus

Many parents are keen to see their children develop greater focus and discipline through their martial arts training, and GKR’s classes provide the perfect environment. Instructors teach in a respectful and supportive atmosphere through karate inspired games, activities and drills.

Family

GKR promotes a family environment, encouraging kids, parents and relatives to all train in the same class. Staying a few karate grades behind your children, will encourage them to continue a regular training program.
Respect

As a traditional Japanese martial arts, karate promotes respect to our instructors, our club, each other and most importantly ourselves. This is a key part of your learnings as a student of GKR karate.
Friendships

Although karate is considered a solo sport, it is still the foundation for many life long friendships. Classes include games and partner work where children and adults alike take the opportunity to learn about and bond with their fellow class mates.
