Melbourne Taido Club

A great club to train martial arts with some amazing people..

Taido is a really cool, modern and dynamic martial art from Japan, not very well-known (yet) in Australia. This club is new and therefore still small, but it has the support of the larger UNSW club in Sydney (where Taido started in Australia) as well as the worldwide Taido community, which is tight-knit, like a family. It also means our two coaches Kellie and Dave can give their full attention to each member, which is awesome. The club provides a very friendly and relaxed atmosphere that is excellent to help learn a challenging sport. You barely notice how tiring it is until you hurt all over the next day ;) I find Taido very enriching because of its many aspects: It aims at developing a strong and able body of course, but also a quick, confident and flexible mind, as well as strategic thinking. I would recommend it for anyone, with or without previous martial art experience (I had absolutely none).
