The age range is very diverse with children starting at four years old up to about 10 years old, then senior men and women who train in another session which has approximately 10 to 12 members.
The club is very family orientated and the parents are always attending the sessions to watch their children progress.
At the moment there are about 45 members and numbers are growing per session.
Luckily there are about eight coaches, many of whom have represented Australia at world titles.
Several have won international tournaments.
They include Olympians and Commonwealth Games competitors.
Some of them are Pac Rim, Oceania and National medallists.
Half of these coaches are black belts with a further three trying for their black belts later this year.
For information ring 44488494. Bushido closes during all school holidays.
