Mas Oyamas 11 Budo Mottos: The Martial Arts way begins and ends with courtesy. Therefore, be properly and genuinely courteous at all times.
Following the Martial Way is like scaling a cliff - Continue upwards without rest. It demands absolute and unfaltering devotion to the task at hand.
Strive to seize the initiative in all things, all the time guarding against actions stemming from selfish animosity or thoughtlessness.
Even for the Martial Artist, the place of money cannot be ignored. Yet one should be careful never to become attached to it
The Martial Way is centered on posture. Strive to maintain correct posture at all times.
The Martial Way begins with one thousand days and is mastered after ten thousand days of training.
In the Martial Arts, introspection begets wisdom. Always see contemplation on your actions as an opportunity to improve.
The nature and purpose of the Martial Way is universal. All selfish desires should be roasted in the tempering fires of hard training.
he Martial Arts begin with a point and end in a circle. Straight lines stem from this principal.
The true essence of the martial way can only be realised through experience. Knowing this, learn never to fear its demand.
Always remember: In the Martial Arts, the rewards of a confident and grateful heart are truly abundant.

Kyokushin or Kyokushinkai is a style of Karate known as the strongest style and was developed in the 1950s by Masutatsu Oyama. At Elite Fighting Arts & Kyokushin Academy, our primary fighting style is Kyokushinkai & Knockdown - Full contact no glove fighting.

To further enhance our standup fighting strength, we have incorporated a Muay Thai Kickboxing & fitness programme, sponsored by TUFF Camp, Thailand. We have also introduced the Karate/MMA style; Tsuyoi-Kakuto (meaning powerful combat) - Hybrid Karate, Budo MMA. This is a form of Koshiki fighting. In Okinawan karate this refers to old style, or hard style fighting. We use a mix of Japanese standup full contact knockdown fighting, kickboxing, Okinawan Tegumi, Jujutsu (Jiujitsu) & Persian Koshti wrestling & strength training methods.

We do not consider ourselves a modern style MMA gym but focus on the Budo mixed fighting striking methods with modern concepts, our foundation rooted in Kyokushinkai.

We offer training in the following disciplines; some of the worlds toughest standup fighting systems:
