Are you the owner of Kyoshin Shotokan Karate Club?
Their hands and bodies as their weapons. Karate involves a combination of strikes, kicks, and grappling techniques, as well as defensive moves, all designed to effectively subdue or disable an opponent. It is not only a martial art but also a holistic practise that cultivates discipline, respect, and self-control.
Kyoshin Shotokan Karate Club embraces the traditional principles of Shotokan Karate, focusing on the development of strong technique, mental fortitude, and a respectful, supportive training environment. Established in 1999, the club has become a prominent force in the local martial arts community and has attracted members of all ages and skill levels.
Located in Caldicot, Newport, South Wales, Kyoshin Shotokan Karate Club offers classes for both beginners and advanced practitioners. The club is proud to be affiliated with Shotokan Connect, ensuring quality instruction and adherence to traditional karate values.
At Kyoshin Shotokan Karate Club, family is at the core of our ethos. We encourage families to train together and provide attractive family discounts to make karate accessible to everyone. Our weekly classes cater to different age groups and skill levels, ensuring that every member can progress at their own pace.
The club has a strong track record of producing talented and successful competitors. Our members have won numerous medals at club, regional, and national levels, and we have proudly produced Welsh champions in both kata (forms) and kumite (sparring).
