Our world class Kyohan Shotokan Karate classes involve close-quarter self defence focused striking, grappling, throwing, ground work, forms and pad work with static, dynamic and alive training. This is not creche or sport karate.
Traditional close range multi-skill grappling and striking karate: practical karate for practical people.
Classes are for adults and teenagers. If you did karate as a child you’ll find what we do is rather different. We welcome male and female students from a wide range of backgrounds to our classes.
Our goal is to help you be the best you can be. We believe in supporting students at all levels of ability with individual coaching in a friendly training environment.
Classes focus on paired grappling and striking exercises alongside pad work. Traditional Shotokan Karate kata are taught to give context to the sparring drills and to provide exercises for home training. We do not march up and down in lines! We believe in using modern coaching methods alongside traditional martial arts skills to give our students support and training that is focused on them.
Our current training follows Covid Secure procedures to enable safe contact training. We are currently only running online Zoom training alongside dropbox file sharing.
