*** COVID-19 RETURN TO TRAINING***
In light of the Governments more recent announcements on we can confirm that we are returning to training on 14th September 2020, however, temporarily our dojo will change location. This will likely be the case until October 2020 when we hope to return to our main hall.
As the situation is continously evolving and changing the calendar should be taken as a rough guide. Our timetable and location is subject to change and review in line with the latest guidance which can change frequently which makes keeping this website fully up to date difficult. As such if unsure about when/where we are training please either check the Members Only Facebook page or use the Contact Us page.
We look foward to welcoming you back to training!

The hardest part is walking in...
We know walking into the dojo for the first time can be intimidating, our members have all gone through exactly the same thing!
Our classes are all very friendly and welcoming no matter your age, ability or experience. After walking through the door that first time, it all gets much easier!
Mondays - 1745-1825hrs - Competition Classes
Mondays classes are geared more towards competition in both Kata and Kumite. There will still be an element of fitness but it isn't quite the same focus as Friday's classes. These classes are open to all students interested in improving their fitness and who would like to compete either now or in the future.
Fridays 1800-1830hrs
Our Fitness Bursts are 30 minute classes which can include kettle bells, medicine balls, body weight training and more.
The classes are based around interval training meaning everyone can work to their own ability without the risk of "falling behind" or being left out.
The classes are open to ALL meaning karate and non-karate, so if you're dropping off a relative who is training, or simply want to incorporate a half hours burst of fitness into your week then come along or Contact Us for more info!
