Recently Kumataka St George Dojo hosted our local federal member, Ash Ambihaipahar MP - Member for Barton, who visited us to find out about who we are, our contribution to our local community as a not-for-profit volunteer run organisation, and our place in the martial arts sphere - focusing on authentic, traditional Japanese and Okinawan martial arts, connected to their roots, with a focus on technique and cultivation of the art itself. We appreciated Ash's genuine interest in us and the difference that the Stronger Communities grant has made for us, and hope that this will help us to continue to grow.
