All students - 10th kup to black belt dan grades, here is an app presented to the club by one of our members, Stephen Pritchard, that will help with your theory learning. Please log in to it by copying and pasting the following link in to your PC, laptop, tablet or other handheld device: https://www.brainscape.com/p/E353-LH-B0FH6

This is an excellent tool that Stephen has put together for the club members and we thank him greatly. 


The next grading is to be held on Sunday 12th September for Tiny Titans and colour belts up to and including red tag. Timings can be picked up at the dojang.

New timetable published and can be seen on the 

Location and Times tab

And we are back once more, hopefully with no more lockdowns. Current restrictions mean no one over the age of 18 can train in a main class, but can work with a partner or one to one with an instructor. PP should be worn for pad work for adults and, as of yet there can be no sparring. These restrictions do not apply to those under 18 however bubbles should be built and maintained. This means classes must be kept to a maximum of 15 students and booking your space is essential. If you wish to come along for a trial please call or send a message to 07962 168215.

Current Covid restrictions mean we are operating with a reduced and limited timetable - please see the 'locations and times' tab for more detail.
