We also hold two competitions each year: an open tournament in Spring around
April and in Winter in November. We also have a squad of students who regularly
compete both here in the UK and overseas at national and international levels.
Social events are held throughout the year where students and families from
different locations can meet and get to know one another. Our club has an ‘open
door’ policy, so if you are affiliated with another style, club or association,
you are welcome to come and train with us and there will be no pressure to join.
We hold classes for children (aged 5 – 12yrs), teens & adults, and mixed age
group classes where the whole family can train together as well as specialist
senior grade classes and private one-to-one tuition. Karate is a proven system
of self-protection. It is NOT an aerobic class. It is NOT intended to better a
person’s confidence or self-esteem. However, if you practice karate do properly
and correctly, you will develop improved confidence, gain muscle tone and
strength, lose weight, and more. Keep this in mind and you will gain more from
your training than you could ever expect. Kinesiology is the scientific study of
the principles of body mechanics and anatomy in relation to movement. With that
understanding in mind, Karate is the scientific study of body mechanics and
anatomy in relation to health and self-protection. Seitou Ryu Karate® is a great
way to get into shape. On top of that, you will learn other skills while you
tone muscle and feel better about yourself. Unlike aerobic classes or gyms, you
will never feel out of place in our karate classes. Our karate classes are
taught from an understanding of human anatomy and physiology, psychology and an
intricate knowledge of the art itself. Seitou Ryu Karate® is a great distraction
from everyday stress and strain. More medical problems today are being
associated with or directly caused by mental and physical stress. Your classes
will serve as mini vacations 2 to 4 times per week. Not only will you feel more
relaxed but you will actually notice increased productivity in your daily life.
Today’s society puts a great deal of importance on self-dependence. Nothing
takes the place of feeling secure in your daily life. A successful career can be
a determining factor for financial security. Our classes help build physical and
psychological security through building confidence in the student’s abilities.
What you learn in our classes could save you or a loved one’s life. Our
life-protection techniques and principles are practical and our training, though
conducted under safe learning conditions, allows for the most realism possible.
Seitou Ryu Karate® is not based on competition-play karate. You will learn
techniques that are “up close and personal”. Our classes are fun. You will be
mentally and physically challenged in a relaxed atmosphere. It has been proven
that people learn faster and retain more when they are having fun.
