|
Zen Do Kai is a freestyle martial art system which originated in Australia by Bob Jones and Richard Norton when they left the Japanese karate dojo of Tino Ceberano in 1970. History The first Zen Do Kai dojo was opened at Elizabeth Street, Melbourne. Jones states that it was originally intended to cater for those who worked in the security industry. Zen Do Kai follows the classical martial arts model with a distinct hierarchy, a philosophy and the promotion of the ethical code of Bushido. The web site of Bob Jones Corporation Pty Ltd claims that Zen Do Kai has clubs located in Australia, New Zealand and Israel. Philosophy Bob Jones describes Zen Do Kai as an "open system", and as such is "open to influences and ideas from all around the world", Disputes arose between Anderson and Jones that led to Anderson being removed as the head of Zen Do Kai in Queensland in late-2000. Malcolm Anderson then formed Anderson Bushi Kai which now spans across QLD with many schools, students and instructors.
