Traditional Karate & Fitness (TKF), located in Cringleford, Norwich, is a karate club offering classes for all ages and abilities. Founded in 2014 by four dedicated instructors, TKF aims to provide high-quality Shotokan Karate training to students of all levels. The club is committed to ensuring that students receive the best possible training by experienced and passionate instructors.
One of the standout features of TKF is its affiliation with the English Karate Federation (EKF), making it the only karate club in Norfolk that can put students on a pathway to top-level international competitions. The EKF is the only recognised English Karate organisation by the World Karate Federation (WKF), which is in turn recognised by the International Olympic Committee. This affiliation gives TKF students a unique opportunity to compete at the highest level of karate.
TKF offers a wide range of classes across various locations in Norfolk and north Suffolk. For children aged 4-6, TKF has the Little Ninjas programme, a fun, and safe way for young children to enjoy the wonders of martial arts. Junior karate classes cater to children aged 6-14, focusing on building self-confidence, balance, fitness, coordination, and discipline while teaching the art of self-defence.
Adult karate classes are available for students aged 14 and above, providing the same benefits and enjoyment as other age groups. Karate is a sport with no age limit, making it an ideal choice for individuals looking to improve their fitness, mental discipline, and overall well-being.
In addition to regular classes, TKF offers elite and squad training for those aspiring to compete at national and international competitions. The club also provides tailored self-defence classes for individuals or groups.
To stay updated on the latest news and events, TKF regularly organises courses and gradings. It also hosts club competitions to foster a spirit of friendly competition among its members.
