The aims and objectives of Zen Do Kai’s ‘Kidz Karate Class’ are to develop:

A healthy attitude towards self and a healthy attitude to sport. Hanshi Nigel Kendall does this by teaching basic martial arts training and basic self defence skills. This improves children’s basic motor skills, group socialisation, co-operation with others and self discipline. All of this is achieved by making sure we have fun! Zen Do Kai

Zen Do Kai is a Modern Martial Art with traditional values. An all rounded martial art that includes the gruelling techniques of Muay Thai and blends them with other skills such as - ground fighting (wrestling), locks, holds, throws, self defence techniques, weaponry, pressure point strikes, multiple attack drills, meditation and much more. Techniques are explained in great detail ensuring a greater understanding in a safe environment. Krav Maga

Krav Maga is all about effective defence tactics and skill. All our training is designed to be a simple to learn and implement as possible. Not complicated, not tricky - just effective and easy to implement. Based on the Israeli Military close quarter combat training, Krav Maga has become the most popular defensive style in the world. You will learn defensive skills from grabs, strikes, knives, batons, firearms and multiple attacks. You will leave each class knowing that you are better equiped to deal with an attack than when you walked in. Arnis - Eskrima - Kali

Arnis, Eskrima, Kali is a traditional martial arts system from the Philippines that emphasises weapons based fighting techniques using sticks and various improvised weapons. It includes hand to hand combat and weapon disarming techniques using kicks and drills. It is expressly designed to teach students to move quickly, act and think fast & experiment with variations while remaining safe. Students learn a specific series of attacks, counters and counter attacks. As they advance minor variations are added, such as changing footwork, or switching to completely different attacks. Eventually the exercise becomes almost completely freestyle.
