Barrie Karate was founded in 1997 by Dan McDougall. Barrie Karate continues to provide solid traditional martial arts instruction to children and adults of all ages. We offer lessons in Okinawan Goju-ryu. What makes us different is our unique way of interacting with students so that they grow and develop to their full potential, no matter what their age or ability. Our instructors are highly trained and effective at developing trust and rapport, and the result is an environment that students want to be in.
