Shotokai karate is a non-competitive art and focuses on conditioning the body, cultivating the mind and nurturing the spirit. People are at the very centre of everything we teach and practice. Valuing new members and supporting existing ones is an essential element to the club culture. Nothing is more important than helping people develop. Karate is a complex subject. All clubs and styles offer something a little different. Our approach is to encourage a relaxed and sensitive body enabling our students to use the attackers energy to their advantage. We believe overt power and domination are not the most effective ways to deal with confrontation. It's all about remaining calm under pressure and using your body effectively.
Of course, martial arts training can be a physically demanding activity, but, at the risk of stating the obvious, we recognise and respect everyone as an individual, with their own personal strengths and weaknesses. Progress and fitness are entirely at your own pace, we are there to encourage you, not wipe the floor with you!
