About Us

There is a physical side to Karate but there is also a cerebral side to it. For Sensei Wilfred Seerattan at the Toronto JKA Karate it is a way to develop character through strenuous physical activity. Courtesy and respect plays a large part in the development of character. Sensei Seerattan teaches karate with these and other virtues in mind but he also believes in having fun.

The atmosphere in the Karate dojo is very friendly. Everyone is traveling a path or way (do) in a quest to be the best they can be at the martial art and in this effort, higher belt levels are required to help lower belt. It’s members come from all walks of life. There are teachers, musicians, lawyers and bankers, to name a few.

Sensei Seerattan started in September 1983 has trained with some of the legends of martial arts and has achieved the rank of 6th degree black belt, competed in World championship in Japan with the Canadian National JKA Team, continues to train 5 days a week and still actively competes on a provincial and national level.

He teaches his skills to an appreciative group of adults and children at his dojo (school) several days a week and has been teaching karate for 24 years now.

Testimonials

My 6 year old has been taking karate with Sensei Wilfred at Toronto JKA for about 1.5 years. He loves it, has learned so much mentally & physically, and really looks forward to attending every week. Sensei Wilfred runs a fun, challenging and well structured program that supports all levels.

I joined the dojo to support my son. It soon became apparent to me, this was a great place to be, and I have remained there now for 8 years. After a hard day at work, it is sometimes easier to stay home, but it is ALWAYS more enjoyable and energizing to come to class. The classes are creative, challenging, and fun. The socializing is wonderful, and it is easy to find supportive, long-standing friendships among the group. What are you waiting for? Try it!

 

~ Barry Espin (Property Manager)

I can’t thank you enough for your patience and dedication in making sure that Nicholas has some successes and enjoys karate. He very much enjoys his time with you and although he can be a challenge in the bigger class, the social aspect is important given his difficulties.

 

~ Christine VanDeursen

Our 10 year old has been training with Sensei Wilfred for 1.5 years now and she loves it. She always wants to practice and attend class and has progressed and learned so much. Even pivoting to Zoom classes has gone well. Sensei is great with the kids — fun and disciplined. Now I just need to find time so I can also train! 🙂 Highly recommend!

 

~ Winnie F

My daughter has been a member at Toronto JKA Karate for 9 years. She has learned so much not only about karate, but the importance of dedication, discipline and mentorship. We have also seen how much the physical training has helped her with her other activities as her strength and flexibility stands out in every group/team setting she has been a part of. Sensei Wilfred makes the classes interesting and has created a JKA Karate family through many events outside of the class setting and gives his students many opportunities to showcase their skills to the outside world which has been wonderful for their self-confidence.
