Samurai Dojo Australia partners with Sports Environment Alliance

August 8, 2024

Sports Environment Alliance has welcomed Samurai Dojo Australia, a community-focused karate school, as its latest member.

Paul Pirie, Founder and Owner of Samurai Dojo Australia explains that the karate school is excited to join Sports Environment Alliance (SEA) as it aligns with their holistic approach to karate, emphasising the body and mind connection.

Pirie shared “we believe that building self-awareness and character on the dojo floor should extend to everything we do, including our actions within the community and our efforts to create positive environmental change.

“As we don’t full-time lease our locations, we focus on what we can impact, including a carbon emission evaluation and identifying opportunities to reduce our footprint. One focus, will be to work with our uniform supplier to source more environmentally friendly karate uniforms and protective equipment, ensuring sustainable practices throughout the supply chain.

“As a community-focused karate school, environmental stewardship is a natural extension of our commitment to the well-being of our community.”

With many of Samurai Dojo Australia students being young children, they are committed to nurturing their growth while safeguarding the environment they will inherit.

In welcoming Samurai Dojo Australia to SEA, Jan Fitzgerald, SEA Chief Executive added “I am delighted to see that a community-focused karate school is committed to taking actionable steps towards sustainability, reinforcing the belief that every effort counts in our collective journey towards a healthier planet.”
