International Karate Daigaku Association Australia (IKD-Karate-Australia) Honbu Dojo in Gympie, Queensland, was opened in April 2017 by Hamid Mostofizadeh.

IKD Gympie Honbu Dojo is the first independent IKD Club in Australia that from 1st of April 2017 on has direct affiliation with the International Karate Daigaku (IKD) in Canada.

IKD-Karate-Australia provides traditional karate training (non for profit) for the community and its families. Karate training is healthy for everyone and every age group. It improves peoples self confidence, spirit, focus, concentration and physical health and is ideal for learning self defence. We want to involve more people and children in sports/ self defence.
We practice authentic traditional Japanese Karate and competitive karate as a fun and healthy activity. First three lessons free! All ages and abilities are welcome.
IKD-Australia is also a member of the Australian Karate Federation (AKF), Queensland Karate Association (QKA), World Karate Federation (WKF) and Oceania Karate Federation (O.K.F) which enables us to compete on state, national and international level in conjunction with our traditional art.
