We Help Parents Raise Confident Leaders
& Adults Reach Their True Potential
Since 2016, Kazokudai has provided its members with a road map to success based on the ancient art of shokotan karate
Classes delivered with passion, experience and integrity
We are a club who aim to train in a friendly but disciplined environment to give children and adults alike the many benefits that come from learning this ancient martial art called Karate. Our Classes are big enough to add some atmosphere but small enough to allow some focus on specific needs where necessary.
The Club provides training opportunities for anyone from the age of 5 Years and over, it doesn’t matter what your physical ability is or wether you are a man, woman, child, mum or dad. There is no age limit to when you should start, and whether you are a beginner, an experienced karate or someone returning after a break - we are dedicated to helping you achieve that personal best. Just remember that everybody in the club was once a beginner so there is no reason to feel embarrassed.

There's Many Great Benefits To Adults Learning Karate
There are many benefits of taking a karate class. Some of these may be obvious, but some are not so
obvious. Many non-martial artists believe karate to be a fitness activity where you can learn some cool moves.
However, the benefits of martial arts for adults are much more extensive than fitness - orientated gains. Karate can improve your mental strength, allow you to adapt to different situations and improve your social life.

Dojo Etiquette
The Dojo (classroom) is a special place, please behave in a respectful manner and refrain from drinking, eating or wearing footwear during the lesson and using offensive language.
Feet should be cleaned with a wet wipe before entering the dojo and stepping on the mats.
Hands should be sanitised regularly before and during training.
Karate - ka (Students) should always bow when entering and before leaving the dojo, as this shows respect to others and to thank instructors for their guidance.
Be Punctual as being late for class is disruptive. If you are late you need to do 10x Push ups then wait in Seiza. (kneel/seating position), until the instructor or class leader allows you to join in, you should then bow and join the class quickly and to the position indicated by the instructor.
During class the students should always pay full attention to the instructor. When an instruction is given students, they should acknowledge with the word Oss and bow when appropriate.
Hygiene is important, please keep all forms of nails short and clean. Hair must be tied up and clear from the face and your Gi (karate suit) should be kept clean. Train with a towel if you sweat a lot and use deodorant.
NO jewellery should be worn during training; this is for safety reasons.
If you are unable to attend class, you should always notify the instructor, also if you need to leave class early please arrange this before class starts.
Parents are free to stay and watch the sessions but we request that mobile phones to be turned silent and not to distract students during their lesson, and especially NOT to walk into the class during the session for any reason.
