The Order of Isshin-Ryu (Australia) is a non-profit organisation, dedicated to passing on the knowledge of Isshin-Ryu Karate. We have hundreds of members in The Order of Isshin-Ryu (USA & Aust.).

Sensei Danny Goding petitioned to become a member of The Order of Isshin-Ryu in 2000. After quite a long and sometimes hard road, the time finally came for Sensei Goding to spend time in the USA with board members of The Order of Isshin-Ryu and after a multitude of training sessions with the various board members and Evaluation/Shiai participation was proud to be accepted as a member of The Order of Isshin-Ryu.

Sensei William Sullivan 7th Dan, spent time in Australia back in 2001 to help with the transition of our school over to the Order of Isshin-Ryu and we are proud to call him our Sensei.

Sensei Sullivan has devoted so much time to helping Sensei Goding for over 4 years with his guidance as our club Sensei and as a friend! We are anxiously waiting for Sensei Sullivan to return to Australia with his lovely wife Jane!
