We teach traditional Shotokan Karate, which is a style that originated in Japan and focuses on discipline, respect, and self-defence.

Our goal is to see our students achieve a black belt within three years of training with us. We believe in a structured approach to learning, setting and achieving goals, and constantly challenging yourself to grow and improve.
