Welcome to Dunedin’s Seido Karate Club. We are a small friendly club with a dedicated core of experienced black belts instructing a range of students from beginner through to advanced. On Sunday mornings we have a junior section that caters for our younger members.

The Dunedin branch of Seido was formed in 1980. The Club is led by Shuseki Shihan Kelvin Lewis, a seventh degree black belt with over 40 years of experience. He is supported by Sei Shihan Kelvin Wilson and a number of black belts who share the teaching load. Seido Dunedin has produced more than 80 black belts, many now prominent in dojos elsewhere.

Seido Karate is a traditional style of karate that instills self-discipline and confidence alongside fitness and technique. Seido encourages men, women and children from all walks of life to experience karate-do and to develop physical, mental and spiritual growth and through this to enhance their everyday life.

Our training dojo is centrally located, just a five minute walk from the Octagon.
