Located in Brendale and serving Brisbane Northside, our academy helps children grow in confidence, character, and physical ability. Backed by decades of experience in martial arts and child development, our coaches provide a safe, supportive, and energised environment where kids are challenged to be their best.
Between the ages of 6 and 12, children experience rapid growth in motor skills, learning ability, and emotional development.
We believe in building well-rounded individuals. While our students learn powerful martial arts techniques, we also place strong emphasis on mental resilience, respect, and leadership — both in and out of the dojang (training hall).
Each class is designed around a curriculum that balances physical skill development with life lessons. Our belt progression system gives students short- and long-term goals to work toward, keeping them motivated and focused. As they move through the ranks, students not only improve physically — they develop grit, patience, and a sense of accomplishment.
Each coach is accredited, insured, and trained in child development
Structured goals keep children focused, driven, and accountable
We celebrate effort as much as outcome
We foster friendships and teamwork through partner drills and group activities
Students may progress into our Junior Performance Team or High Performance Team if they choose to explore competition

Every child is different — and our instructors are trained to identify and adapt to various personalities, learning styles, and physical capabilities. Whether your child is naturally confident or needs support to come out of their shell, our team creates an inclusive space where every student is respected, encouraged, and given the chance to shine.
Our Brendale academy is equipped with high-quality mats, protective gear, and safety protocols to ensure peace of mind for parents. We also encourage parent engagement and communication, so families always feel informed and involved in their child’s progress.
