Brighton Shotokan Karate Club

Welcome to the official web site of the Brighton Shotokan Karate Club. The Club was first established in 1974 and is affiliated to the Academy of Shotokan Karate (ASK), of which Sensei Dave Hazard, 7th Dan, is the Chief Instructor. Over this period many British and International Kumite and Kata competitors and champions have been forged at the Brighton Club which was for many years the official Dojo of Sensei Hazard. However, the emphasis at Brighton is not on ‘sport’ Karate but the traditional study of the ‘three Ks’ – Kihon, Kata and Kumite.
