Happy New Year to all club members and all reading this page some of whom may be inspired to join us in our study of Shotokan karate at some point during the year. We at the club celebrate the fact that we aspire to achieve great things: developing our students’ characters and imbuing them with the attributes to defeat violent assailants are probably at the top of the list. But karate is also an exciting Olympic sport and our members compete with some success in regional and national events throughout the year.
So karate is about many things and has enormous benefits for young and old – the training isn’t easy; but nothing worthwhile ever is.
