BUDO MARTIAL ARTS

​

OUTDOOR DOJO

We started in the Barossa Valley in September 2019 training outdoors on the Greenock Oval, sometimes using the shelter shed.

First, there were two of us; a Ni-dan instructor and a green belt student.

Then three, then four, then suddenly many more...

We decided we needed a place to train and to build a small club, and we knew just the place...

​

STRAIGHT OUTTA LOCK-DOWN

We began officially training at the St. John's Hall in Tanunda as Budo Martial Arts on June 11, 2020, and have since established a great martial arts club with a diverse range of students of all ages.

We have weathered a hectic beginning with Covid restrictions affecting how we could operate, but we have a strong core membership that ensures our ongoing success. Our members help us move forward; they are loyal, driven, and a high priority in everything we do.

​

GROWTH & DIVERSITY

In 2021, we created Impact Fitness and Coaching to facilitate group and personal training, providing services in fitness, diet and lifestyle, youth mentoring, and sports performance.

​

WE ARE NOW TRAINING IN THE GAWLER AREA

In 2023, we opened our Willaston Gym and are now providing more sessions than ever for group, personal fitness, and martial arts.

We have a brand new facility with clean, modern amenities and ample matted floor space for training, cardio machines incliding air bikes, comprehensive range of kettle belles. Our gym also includes a 5x5 metre boxing ring and a huge bag rack with a great mix of punching bags.​

OUR KIDS MARTIAL ARTS ARE SECOND TO NONE!

We train kids aged 4 to 14 years old across three age- and skill-appropriate levels, meaning each child can work at their best capability!

We regularly train and get great results working with children with ASD and other conditions*.

MOVING FORWARD IN 2025

As of 2025, all of our training and fitness programs are based at our Willaston Gym — our full-time, six-day-a-week facility. This allows us to focus our resources and provide a consistently high-quality training experience in a modern, well-equipped space.

Managed by fighter / trainer Shari Davis, our Willaston gym is gearing up for a big and bright future.
