A brief history

John started his training 40 yrs ago in judo, before changing to Goju. His dedication to the art, his dojo and his students is extrordinary.

We are A traditional style club, with a low emphasis on tournament/sport karate. Instead we look at Karate as a whole body/mind thing, drawing on Kata a great deal. We have a lot of juniors and very few seniors, but juniors are our future.

Senior athlettes include Nigel who started his training in TKD before changing to Goju and is now 2nd Dan. He is a "hard" man, who pushes himself and others to acheive their full potential.
