People who continuously strive to better themselves founded ‘Koryu Shinjitsu-Ryu Karate-Do’. The values we promote are centred on courtesy, wisdom, patience, respect, humility and a willingness to help others. In our Dojo we encourage and nurture people to step out from their comfort zones, overcome fears and become exceptional human beings. We expect these people to become strong leaders and do their best to create a better society for all. The Training

As a traditional Karate school, beginners’ training consists of learning traditional karate techniques including blocks, strikes and stances. Higher-grade students learn technical adaptations of techniques and receive training in tried and tested realistic, modern day applications, from other various martial arts including boxing, judo and aikido. We are a realistic style and always aim to provide a safe training environment.
