Kenshukai Karate Acton-Martial Arts Classes For Children And Adults

At Kenshukai Karate in London, individuals of all ages have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the captivating martial art of Karate. With classes available for adults and children aged 5 years and above, our dedicated instructors are committed to helping students develop their confidence, discipline, self-defence skills, and overall fitness.

Founded on the principles of traditional Japanese Martial Arts, Kenshukai Karate-do draws inspiration from two distinct core styles: Shotokan and Goju-Ryu. Shotokan, pioneered by master Gichin Funakoshi, emphasises health, breathing techniques, energy release, and exceptional mind-body coordination. This style is renowned for its powerful linear movements, deep stances, and a focus on strengthening the legs. Shotokan Karate can be considered a 'hard' and 'external' Martial Art.

Goju-Ryu, meaning “hard-soft style,” combines forceful strikes such as kicks and punches with circular techniques for defensive blocks and opponent control. This style excels in close-quarter combat and teaches proper breathing techniques for enhanced performance. Our instructors are well-versed in Goju-Ryu, giving students a comprehensive training experience.

The Kenshukai Karate club badge, featuring a soaring eagle, embodies all the qualities we seek to instil in our students. Strength, skill, patience, gracefulness, intelligence, focus, and the confidence to overcome challenges. Just as the eagle has sharp eyesight, enabling it to see the tiniest details from a distance, we encourage students to have clear vision and a broader perspective. The eagle's ability to rise and glide effortlessly in stormy winds symbolises our own journey of growth and improvement through overcoming obstacles.

Kenshukai Karate prides itself on being a family-oriented club, where relatives of all ages are welcome to train together. Our emphasis is on non-contact training to minimise the risk of injuries. Our instructors understand the unique needs and abilities of each student, ensuring a safe and supportive environment for all. We strive to foster a sense of camaraderie and unity within our club, creating a community that supports and celebrates each other's achievements.

As a testament to our commitment to professionalism and safety, Kenshukai Karate is affiliated with the NAKMAS National Association of Karate and Martial Art Schools. Our affiliation demonstrates our adherence to child protection standards and codes of ethics set forth by this reputable governing body.
