They gently develop skills in focus, confidence, listening and getting on with others while learning a few basic techniques.
Everyone leaves feeling like a super-hero!
If you like the idea of karate, but aren't sure if it's for you, have your first week of training on us.
There's no commitment and nothing to pay. Just come along and meet us and have a go.
You don't need to be fit or flexible, or have any special clothing, just something loose and comfortable.
If you don't love it, it won't cost you a penny.

We offer one-off bespoke self-defence training for you, your family, friends or your school, club or organisation.
We teach basic, no-nonsense techniques that work. You won't leave the class a self-defence expert, but you will learn how to get out of trouble or buy some time.
These sessions are fun, realistic and incredibly useful.
You've heard of karate and probably seen some on tv, but what is it all about? The three basics are kihon, kata and kumite. And the benefits are so much more than self-defence. Click below to discover what all that means and start your journey today. It could, and probably will, change your life!
