Lot TO STAY THE SAME. Twyford Karate Academy offers affordable membership options for individuals and families, making it accessible to everyone. The club believes that martial arts should be a passion and a commitment, not just a financial burden.
For children and adults, there are separate classes tailored to suit their needs and abilities. The classes are structured to ensure a balance between discipline and fun, allowing students to learn and progress at their own pace. Sensei Matt Taylor, with his years of experience, ensures that each student receives individual attention and guidance.
The club's training is focused on the traditional Goju-ryu style of karate, which is known for its effectiveness in self-defence. Through disciplined training, students develop not only physical strength but also mental fortitude and self-discipline. The curriculum includes basics, kata (sequences of moves), kumite (sparring), and conditioning exercises to strengthen the body and mind.
In addition to self-defence, the club recognises the importance of karate as a sport and offers training for those interested in competition. Students have the opportunity to participate in tournaments and test their skills against other practitioners.
The club also organises various events and training camps throughout the year, both locally and internationally, to provide students with unique opportunities for growth and learning. These events bring together students from different countries, allowing them to experience different styles and training methods.
Twyford Karate Academy believes that karate is not just about physical fitness but also about personal development. Through karate, students learn values such as respect, discipline, and non-violent conflict resolution, which they can apply in all areas of their lives.
Whether you are a beginner or have previous experience in martial arts, Twyford Karate Academy welcomes you to join their community. Discover the benefits of karate training and be part of a supportive and dedicated group of individuals who are passionate about martial arts and personal growth.
