Karate - Judo Verein Dresden e.V.

Our dojo is a part of a karate department that welcomes you warmly and presents itself. The dojo teaches karate, a martial art characterized by striking, thrusting, kicking, and blocking techniques, as well as foot techniques. Our training focuses on the traditional Japanese martial art of karate, with an emphasis on the development of body and mind, sensitivity, and intuition. We train in a style-off manner, primarily in the Shotokan and Wado-Ryu directions, while also incorporating elements from judo and other martial arts disciplines. Our goal is not to compete or win championships, but to apply karate in self-defense. We are inspired by the traditional Budo concept, which aims to maintain physical and mental well-being, train sensitivity and intuition, and emphasize the fitness and enjoyment aspects of training.
