Kancho Yoshiji Soeno was a top student of Mas Oyama and created Shidokan Karate in 1981 from his experiences in Kyokushin Karate, Muay Thai and Judo. Classes in Shidokan Karate utilise Punching, Kicking, Throwing and Submissions in modern and traditional formats to showcase an extremely balanced Martial Art.
Students can compete in various forms of competition as a part of their development but the emphasis at the Dojo is on respect, self-improvement and self-preservation rather than only victory in a sports setting.
By products of Karate training are good functional strength and conditioning and fitness. Gradings are held regularly as part of a coloured belt system recognised internationally, and are awarded based on individual improvement and dedication to training.
Shidokan classes aren’t just for young and able people but are in fact designed to be a form of self-creation in a way that everyone is different and has different physical and mental abilities.
Ultimately students adjust the training to create their own version of Shidokan Karate and through hard training overcome any physical, mental or spiritual obstacles that could hamper their everyday life.
The concept of MonstarZen Martial Arts has always been about Balance. Balance in fighting style but more importantly, balance in mind, body and spirit. Inside everybody is a duality of aggression and peace, and daily training in martial arts is the perfect vehicle to achieving this homeostasis.
All the team at MonstarZen are true martial artists in the purest sense. We are all students simply wanting to be better at Life. Our aim is to create a welcoming, friendly atmosphere without ego that is just about enjoying training, and improving together in a safe, clean environment.
We have teamed up with Carpe Diem BJJ, a jiujitsu team from Japan under the direction of Yuki Ishikawa that have the same ethos as us when it comes to Martial Arts. There are no secrets to an easy life in a chaotic world but Martial Arts is a form of being in the present, focusing on the now, seizing the day.
It is moving meditation to escape the outside craziness of the world and the inside craziness of our heads. Our purpose at MonstarZen is to offer a space where anyone and everyone.
Just by simply turning up and training on the mats can directly or indirectly find their personal path to health and well-being. Plus…learning how to Punch, Kick, Throw and Submit people is a lot of fun and addictive.
