Join Us Today

Welcome to the Firestorm Dojos' 8th web presence. To mark the 2010 launch of our latest web site, called 'Senjo', we invite all site visitors to register here with us and to join us at our dojo if you live nearby. Our dojo offers first class facilities for serious martial arts training. To learn more you are welcome to wander through our web site and if you need more information then please contact us.

Zen Do Kai Logo We train in the Australian freestyle martial art called Zen Do Kai. This style was developed by Bob Jones and emphasises the best of everything in progression. This means that we adopt the very best, and proven, techniques from all martial arts styles and build them into our own. We place an emphasis on continuous improvement and on training for strength together.

Our Kidz Karate school is extremely popular and very large. We offer a children's Zen Do Kai martial arts curriculum from white belt through to black belt. Firestorm's Kidz Karate school has produced many accomplished black belt martial artists. Many of our junior students later advance to continue their training at Firestorm's senior school. Why not give your children a head start with self defence?

BJC Muay Thai is also offered at the Firestorm Centre. Muay Thai is a Thai fighting style that incorporates punching and kicking as well as techniques using elbows and knees. Many BJC Muay Thai fighters train with a view to entering tournament competitions and some actually train in Thailand on annual visits there.

Firestorm Dojos Little Dragons school is designed for children aged between 3 and 5 years. It provides a fun filled atmosphere of play and fitness underpinned by order and gentle martial arts principles. It also instils values such as respect, sharing, patience, kindness and honesty.

Family Night 2009

Kyoshi Mike Quin Every year Firestorm hosts its annual Family Night. In 2009, in December, we combined this with our Christmas break up and our Awards night. It was very well attended and everyone enjoyed catching up outside of the rigour of our usual training evenings.

On the night we typically include various demonstrations from our senior students and our younger warriors. Log in to see a video of one of the demos that was conducted on the night.

1st Night Back At Training

Last Updated on Saturday, 16 January 2010 18:42 Written by Mike Quin Monday, 11 January 2010 22:27

Kyoshi Mike Quin Well, the temperature topped 43 degrees outside but a small band of committed students turned up to start 2010 off with a bang. Spirits were high and all participated in the modified training session (due to the heat).

I wish to thank all who attended tonight's training and I hope you all got something out of it. I know I did.

It bodes well for Firestorm in the coming year to have such dedicated students.

Games Arcade

Last Updated on Sunday, 31 January 2010 14:06 Written by Mike Quin Wednesday, 06 January 2010 23:05

This is to inform site members that, by popular demand, we have created a new games arcade in our brand new Firestorm site. Our previous site was overloaded with games and a selection of these were extremely popular. We have restored some of these, such as Samurai and 3 Foot Ninja and also a few of the classics that appeared in our 'Reloaded' web presence such as Space Invaders and Pac Man.

But this time we've included some new titles including Karate King, Kickboxing, Masters of Wrestling and even a cool Apache chopper game called 'Fire Storm', to name a few. And as a special appearance in the Firestorm arcade, we introduce Galaga as a special classic addition.

So there you go; but don't let these get in the way of your regular training. Use them to chill out with after your training sessions. Happy game playing.

In Bushido, and see you back at the dojo soon guys, Kyoshi Mike.

Firestorm's 'Senjo' Web Site

Last Updated on Monday, 25 January 2010 08:24 Written by JeffC Sunday, 03 January 2010 09:18

Senjo Mon Introducing Firestorm's new web site for 2010. Welcome to Firestorm's new 'Senjo' web presence. This is Firestorm's eighth web presence since 1999 so we thought we'd call it 'Senjo' to pay tribute to the 8 qualities of the Zen Do Kai martial artist as defined in the ZDK Senjo philosophy. We have returned to a black theme to salute the many individuals who have attained the elusive ZDK black belt at Firestorm and to all of those who wear the ZDK black gi's.

The 'Senjo' site is a total revamp of Firestorm's web presence - we built it from ground up on a new server and an updated web platform. The previous site, 'Seven Samurai' is now retired after providing two years of faithful service.

Please see our blog note, under the 'News' menu item, about registering for access to the site. We look forward to responding to requests from site members for enhancements to the 'Senjo' web presence so please contribute your ideas via our forums or by sending messages to us directly.

We trust that you'll enjoy our new site (as much as we enjoyed developing it) and look forward to sharing information and news together regularly.

In Bushido, Firestorm's Web Team - JeffC, DarrenS and Kyoshi Mike.
