About Our Association

The ICKFA (Sunshine Coast Branch) Inc, grew out of the unincorporated Sunshine Coast Chito-Ryu™ Karate Association, a non-profit organisation established in 2001 with the primary objective of supporting the development of Chito-Ryu™ Karate throughout the Sunshine Coast region of South East Queensland, Australia.

Our association is made up of the Chito-Ryu™ Karate-ka from member dojos on the Sunshine Coast and run by an annually elected management committee and other volunteers.
