Black Belts and Senior Grades

Instructors plus all Black and Brown Belts have special classes available, which are designed for their more advanced level. Please look on our Club Locations page for the times of these popular and more advanced classes.

Training Fees and Information

Monthly fees are payable for training, with seven days of classes per week. You may choose to attend any or all of these classes. Higher grades may train in any lower grade sessions at no extra charge.

Special Courses

Tickets for Courses & Seminars with top international instructors are best paid for in advance, as these events are very popular & sell out very quickly. These courses are open to all clubs, associations and individual students. Details of these courses can be found on our Club Events page.

Parents, Children and Karate

For the peace of mind of all parents and young people, and in line with general educational principles, club instructors all carry enhanced CRB Certification. We teach karate to children over the age of six and do not enrol children under this age.

GCSE and The Duke of Edinburgh Award

A number of our members have taken karate as a GCSE subject at School or College and we are now able to offer Karate as a choice PE subject used by some GCSE examining bodies. Members can study karate and qualify with us as a part of their GCSE and A level examination.
We have also qualified a number of our students for the
Duke of Edinburgh Award using karate as one of their achievements.
