You’re obviously interested in karate already because you’re here: which is a great start. And this site will give you all the information you need to make the next step.

Many people think karate is about smashing bricks, ‘one-inch death punches’ and screaming ‘Eeee-yah’. But it’s not. (Except the screaming, which is called a Kiai*).

To quote our founder: “The ultimate aim of karate lies not in victory or defeat, but in the perfection of character.”

So it doesn’t matter what your physical ability or disability is. Whether you’re a man, woman, or child. Or S, M or L. 

That’s because karate enables you to realise your full potential. And whether you’re a beginner, an experienced karateka, or someone returning to training after a break, we’re dedicated to helping you achieve that personal best.

*A kiai is a short, loud exhalation (like a yell) before or during a strike or technique. As well as being used to startle opponents, it helps put more power into a technique.
