Melbourne Taido Club

Melbourne Taido Club Taido (躰道, "the way of the mind and body") is a modern, dynamic martial art from Japan. Taido is a Japanese form with Karate roots.

The main difference is instead of focusing on blocking we use movements to avoid and generate power. We go around, under, over - is it easy? Nope, but the hardest part is the first step. It gets easier (but also harder) every training we promise!

Second belt and it's time to learn Nentai!
The spiralling "waterwhirl" movement of kicks and takedowns.

Tricky and physically demanding but done with good timing these sneaky kicks can be a nasty surprise!

"He**ai" movements use changes in angle, motion, body axis in a soft smooth motion, like clouds changing in a storm, to generate energy.

It is hard to explain - you have to be here!

Beginner course now at Monash Clayton and VU Footscray!
