Shotokan Karate
True karate is this: that in daily life one’s mind and body be trained and developed in a spirit of humility, and that in critical times, one be devoted utterly to the cause of justice.
We are a friendly Karate Club that welcomes the whole community. We believe that Karate plays an important role in society. It is fun, creative, keeps you fit and learns the individual respect and common decency to all.
We all start somewhere, every black belt started with white.
If you are looking to come back into the dojo, we will welcome you with open arms.
Age is no barrier, be you 8 or 80 karate is for all ages.
