Welcome to Hikaru Dojo Martial Arts Academy in Perth, Western Australia. Hikaru Dojo Martial Arts Academy was established mid 2000 and is a portal promoting and unifying the wide range of martial arts available in Perth.

There are many martial arts schools in Perth which offer courses aside from their specific martial arts curriculum. This may include 'freestyle' training, self defence, children's classes and courses derived from the martial arts. Hikaru Dojo helps you navigate your choices so you may access the best training from experienced instructors here in Western Australia.

There are factors you should consider when selecting a martial arts school in Perth:

• Location: An ideal martial art school you want to attend regularly should be located close to work/school or home. But there are those schools - either because of instructor, or material covered or peer group which beg you to undertake a longer journey.
• Instructor: All instructors even down to the assistants must be knowledgeable, passionate, and interested to work with you. Sit in on classes or take advantage of the first one or two freebies and reach out to those instructors who know their stuff and who come highly recommended by Hikaru Dojo.
• Price: While price is important, you should also consider value. The school should not pass on unnecessary fixed costs which artificially inflate training fees.
• Disclosure: One of the things you should strongly consider is the school’s willingness to discuss the cost of training with you. Things you should ask about are: Belt fees, association or membership fees, contracts, additional programs, equipment needed, and uniforms.
• Students: Are the martial art students friendly and helpful to you or the other students? Is there a good spread amongst belt ranks? Are you comfortable with the culture of the school? Talk to the other students and get their opinions!
