Joen Mawashi is a karate club founded in 1975 and located in Joensuu, Finland. We train Wadō-Ryū style of karate according to the technical standards set by JKF Wadōkai in Tokyo, Japan. In short, Wadō-Ryū consists of Okinawan karate techniques mixed with Japanese jūjutsu arts principles. We have around 130 members, the youngest from 7 years old up to over 60 years old.

The dōjō (training place) is located at Urheilutalo (sports hall), Koskikatu 12, 80100 Joensuu. We have training sessions on almost every day of the week.
