West Coast Karate is an independent Karate club operating from Mandala
Hall in Bateman Western Australia. We aim to provide a safe, friendly
environment for the practice of karate as a fun, active and healthy
activity. Our instructors are keen to help each student develop their
skills and gain from the many benefits that training in a martial art
such as Karate has to offer.
We are a member of the Australian Karate Federation ("AKF") which is the only Government recognised body in Western Australia.
The AKF is the Australian member of the World Karate Federation ("WKF"). The WKF has full Olympic recognition and conducts the
