Senpai Stu Tylee

Stuart started Goju Ryu Karate with his two children in 2019. Karate was a way he and his then, 5 and 7 year olds could do a sport together. Karate for children is a great way to build self-confidence, fitness, core strength and resilience. Commitment as a family to martial arts has been highly rewarding with his 12yo son gaining his Junior Black Belt in Goju-Ryu and Kobu-Jitsu. His younger daughter is closing the gap to achieve her Junior Black belt in time as well. These experiences and early successes in Martial Arts installs values of commitment and perseverance which Stu believes will benefit his children as they become teenagers. Stu had a background in different martial arts since he was a teenager, but has found Goju-Ryu and Karate Omokoroa to be the perfect location, session times and experienced instructors, for his family.
