International Goju Karate Schools was founded in 2002 by Sensei Rod Darling. He has learned many styles over the years but his main influences have been the great Hanshi Tino Ceberano, 9th dan and his son Shihan Paul Ceberano, 5th dan. He founded the club in the hope of spreading the vast benefits of karate to as many people as possible throughout Australia.

The club has had incredible growth in recent years and now boasts over 400 students in the Perth metropolitan area training out of 20 different locations. The club continues to expand rapidly and has aspirations of expanding into Queensland and New South Wales in the near future.

Students are taught traditional Goju karate with modern methods of teaching, with a huge emphasis of having fun while learning. As a supplementary syllabus, students can also learn a variety of weapons.
