Senshikai Karate

At Senshikai Karate Club – Bath, they offer a traditional form of Japanese Karate that focuses on self-defence and self-improvement. Karate, originating from Okinawa, Japan, was initially translated as “Chinese hand,” drawing influences from Chinese kung fu. However, in today's era, karate is interpreted as “empty hand,” highlighting the ability to defend oneself without weapons.

Senshikai Karate Club takes a holistic approach to self-defence, incorporating striking and grappling techniques. They place equal emphasis on traditional aspects, practical self-defence, and modern sport karate. Their philosophy revolves around promoting self-defence and personal development both inside and outside the dojo.

When you join Senshikai Karate Club, you can expect to develop various skills such as fitness, coordination, concentration, self-confidence, discipline, and respect. The training extends beyond the physical aspect and helps students focus on all areas of life.
