Am I too old to start Karate?
Absolutely not! We welcome students from 13 years of age, up to ages 70+.
The classes are tailored to suit your specific level of fitness and ability, and Sensei Christopher is experienced in training people of all ages and abilities.
Everyone progresses at their own pace, and we believe that it’s never too late to begin your journey to a healthier and better you.
Do I need to be fit before I begin?
No; many people start with little to no fitness background!
Martial arts training will help you gradually improve your strength, flexibility, and stamina, all while having fun in a safe, supportive environment of people at different stages of their martial arts journey.
What should I wear or bring to my first class?
All you need is comfortable sportswear and a bottle of water.
If you decide to continue your training with us, then our membership packages offer everything you need to get started – we’ll guide you!
How often should I train to see real improvement?
Most beginners start with one or two classes a week.
Consistency is more important than intensity, and you’ll notice improvements in confidence, focus, and fitness within just a few weeks of regular training.
Is Karate safe?
Completely safe! Karate is one of the safest activities to pursue because health, control, and respect are at the core of our teaching.
All classes are supervised by a qualified, DBS-checked instructor, and training is always age/experience appropriate.
We focus on mastering key movement principles, discipline, and self-development, so you can build skill and confidence in a structured format and friendly environment.
