My daughter and I joined GKR over a year ago thinking we would do a class on a Sunday to improve our fitness. We quickly became hooked and do multiple classes per week. The instructors are fab, the community is great and the value for money is excellent. If you are thinking of getting into karate we 100% recommend GKR! More...

Fully inclusive, welcoming classes with very knowledgeable, friendly instructors. All ages and abilities are catered for and lifetime friends are there to be made. GKR Karate has a real sense of community and is a safe space for growth and learning at any age. I only started 4 months ago at the age of 52, and mix happily with all classes with some students being as young as 4 - it's inspirational! More...

I highly recommend GKR Karate in Melton. They have been extremely helpful and respectful and have great sensei's. My son that's 12yrs old started a little over a month ago and is now a yellow belt. My daughter started this month and both my children absolutely love it. Very friendly people that go there and I havnt had a problem at all. My son had ASD and ADHD and the sensei takes his time with him to show him the correct moves and helps him every step of the way; its fantastic to see this as most places don't care enough to do that.

My daughter aged 8 joined GKR back in July 2022 and has loved it ever since. Back in Jan 23, having turned 39 i decided i wanted to give it a try and i joined in march. And then my son (aged 5) joined in april. We love going to the classes. The pass means you can attend any class you like throughout the week. And do as many classes per month as you want for a fixed price. so well worth the money. Its fun and great to do as a family More...

My son (8yo) showed interest when we walked past a GKR stand in a shopping centre so decided to take up the free class offer. Everyone was so welcoming. Since he has started, his discipline and concentration at school has significantly improved and this reflected in his latest school report being the best one he has had yet! He thoroughly enjoys the days that he trains and especially loves Sensei Rewa from Hillcrest dojo. My son has recently completed his first grading from white belt to yellow and I am so proud of him. All the black belts that were there on the day were amazing in calming nerves and helping the white belts progress to the next level. Its like one big family. So happy with out decision to stay with GKR. More...

We came to GKR karate in search of an activity to help our son because we are very passionate about self-defence and building esteem. GKR Karate has done much more it has given him confidence, discipline and focus (for 6 years old pretty good). I can honestly say that this is hands down the best thing I have ever invested in for my son. He is more confident, happier and doing better in school. Sensies are very supportive, and professional and interact well with kids of all ages. They are very knowledgeable and have a great ability to bring out the best in children of all levels and abilities. They have EARNED the respect of my child. We love this place; they are like a family to us. I will highly recommend GKR Karate. More...

Signed my daughter up, gave my card details for membership and gave bank details for the fortnightly debits. They used my card instead which then left me with late fees as it was 2 different accounts. I payed manually until it was sorted. Told them fortnightly on a certain day. That day came and it wasn’t taken out… and when they did they tried to take $90 instead of the 45. When I spoke to them someone was quite rude saying I should fix it. I demanded the member ship fee back as it was an ongoing issue but Ofcourse they couldn’t do that. As I wanted to take my daughter else where. Finally apparently got it sorted and I was sent a bill for over $100 to be told there the late fees even though it was there fault for not putting in the right details!!! I decided then to take my daughter out as they just scan your money and refuse the refund for the member ship fee. She went to 2 classes!! Due to there stuff up. Scamming families during such a finacial crisis in the world is a low act. More...

started my karate journey in 2005 when someone knocked on the front door, spoke to a consultant about karate and with the goal of improving my fitness and learn some self defence. Joined the instructor program in 2010 then graded to Shodan Ho in June 2011. Fast forward to 2023, teach 6 classes a week, talk to new people about joining our wonderful club and training hard for my Yondan this year.

My son has been attending the local Dojos since November and his confidence has grown so much. He barely made it to halfway through his first lesson, constantly crying because he didn't want to do it by himself. He got his yellow belt in February. Two weeks ago earned his orange tip and his first award for "awesome turns". He has improved so much in such a short period of time thanks to his wonderful sensei's. More...

Sensei Ray is an outstanding karate instructor, particularly when it comes to teaching children. It's clear that he has a passion for his profession, and that passion is reflected in his teaching style. He is patient, encouraging, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure that his students understand the techniques and concepts that he is teaching. One of the most impressive aspects of Sensei Ray's teaching is his ability to boost the confidence of his young students. My 5-year-old child is a perfect example of this - since starting karate lessons with Sensei Ray, his confidence has skyrocketed. It's truly amazing to see the positive impact that martial arts training can have on a child's self-esteem and Sensei Ray is clearly very skilled at helping his students to achieve this. It's also worth noting that Sensei Ray's classes are enjoyable and engaging for both children and adults. After watching my son learn karate for a few months, I decided to join myself. This is a testament to Sensei Ray's ability to create a welcoming and fun learning environment for all ages and skill levels. Sensei Ray is an exceptional karate instructor who clearly has a passion for teaching and inspiring his students. If you're looking for a martial arts instructor who can help you or your child to build confidence, learn new skills, and have fun along the way, then I would highly recommend Sensei Ray at GKR.

We started our 5 year old a few months ago. He has ASD and ADHD so can be a bit of a handful but his sensei and his other instructors have been nothing short of incredible with him. They are kind, caring and patient and make sure he gets the most out of each class even when his attention drifts they give him gentle reminders. He had his grading on the weekend, we were a bit nervous how he would go as it was a new place with different instructors but the sensei who ran the grading was AMAZING with the kids and my little man loved it!
