Rimmington Martial Arts

A huge thank you to Community Bank Gympie & District for their generous donation of an AED.

The safety and wellbeing of our students, families and wider community is incredibly important to us, and having this equipment onsite provides an added level of care and preparedness within our club.

We are very grateful for the support of organisations that continue to invest back into the local community and help create safer spaces for everyone. Thank you for your support.

Last week another lifesaving AED/Defib was presented to a sponsorship recipient as part of our March 2026 grant grants and sponsorship round 🫶

Rimmington Martial Arts incorporating Karate Development Australia, now has a Defib on site at their Gympie premises 🙏

Our Branch Manager Wayne Carroll is pictured with Julie Rimmington; this Defib will be registered with 000/Qld Ambulance as a community asset, as mere minutes can save a life when someone has had a heart attack ❤️‍🩹

Tameshigiri 試し斬り
Swords were tested on the bodies of criminals, however some documents contain drawings showing various methods for testing on live criminals. These involve rope bamboo and a few assistants.
This is Kesa-giri, a diagonal cut from the neck and out the side.

Truer words never spoken.

Being a black belt is totally different from having a black belt

Black belt: The more we learn, the more we realize how much we still have to learn…

If you are doing martial arts just to get a black belt, you are missing the point and will likely fail in your attempt. The belt is a reminder of the tremendous growth you’ve made while training in your art – becoming fit, learning technique, gaining confidence, becoming disciplined, showing respect, overcoming mental and physical challenges – all important life skills that make you into a better person.....

A black belt is just a belt. It’s the mountains you climb while on your black belt journey that should be your focus and your reward.
Unfortunately, It is very sad to see a large percentage of students, upon earning their black belt, soon quit martial arts training..

For those who understand, it is a lifelong jourey, Keep walking, warriors🥋
