****Class time Reminder****

Quick reminder of our class times over the summer.

I’m currently on annual leave in Spain. Dave has kindly agreed to keep some classes open while we are away.

🥋Our summer classes are:
Monday, Tuesday and Thursday 6:00 to 7:30
And
Saturday 10:00 to 11:30

While we have been away, Dave has opted to keep Tuesday and Thursday classes open.

So;
🥋Tuesday and Thursday classes - 6:00 to 7:30 have run and will continue to run until we return.

❗️‼️Except: Thursday 20th as both Dave and I are away that same day! ‼️❗️

We will get back to normal classes at the start of September. I’ll send a reminder nearer the time.

****ADULT ONLY CLASS****

That’s right folks - time to get into the detail!

Adults only classes will be running between 9:00 and 10:00 am every Saturday followed by our open class between 10:00 and 11:30.

These will kick off from September 5th.

If we have plenty of interest and it seems like the right thing to do, we may extend this class to 90mins - but we will cross that bridge when we get to it.

This is strictly 18+ and classes will be £5 each. This will help fund additional equipment, weapons and Dojo improvements (like new bathrooms😳).

This is open to both existing students and new adults who may wish to train with us.

Get the ⏰ set, get out of bed, and hit the mats!

09/08/2026

We have had some spaces open up at classes through the week. If you have been considering coming along, we reopen from August 21st, and it’s perfect timing.

Mondays and Tuesdays;
5:30 to 6:30 - Juniors (age 5+)
6:30 to 8:00 - Open classes (adults and families)

Thursdays;
5:30 to 6:30 - Sports Karate
6:30 to 8:00 - Advanced class (Currently Full)

Saturdays;
10:00 to 11:30 Open classes (adults and families - mostly adults)

COMING SOON - Adults only class (Details to follow)

Never thrown a punch - that’s fine, most people haven’t. Trained before? No problem, we’re probably very different, you just have to decide if we’re for you or not! Can’t hurt to find out!

Training once a week? That’s only £29 a month.
Training more? Do as many classes as you like for £50 a month - choice is yours. Open all year (except two weeks in the summer and two weeks at Christmas).

First class is free, you’re not tied in, we’re not monsters, everyone makes mistakes, we have fun, we socialise and we treat everyone with respect - regardless of age.

Come along and say Hi!

Massive well done to those that graded today. Other than a sprained ankle, it went pretty well.

So we welcome various new grades, including two new 1st Kyu’s who were pushed to their limit!

We also trialed a new approach to our 1st Kyu’s who are looking to take that step to a Dan grade. Emelia attended the grading to receive feedback having been put through the mill and tested under exam conditions. She has been given a couple of bits to work on and invited to take the test for Junior Black Belt at our next grading in October. Overall, we found it very useful, as did Emelia.

Going forward most 1st Kyu’s will be invited to participate in all gradings so they can also receive feedback under the same circumstances! It’s a lot harder when the nerves kick in!

Today was a lot of fun - thank you all for the hard work and dedication it takes to get there and the effort on the day!

09/07/2026

Just over a week until our next grading.

We tend to grade quarterly, with students eligible at every other grading - not all make it there and not all pass, but we only invite those that have put the time and effort in and are capable of passing.

This grading has been brought forward so we can avoid both a December and September gradings - both months can be difficult for students of all ages.

Last grading was six weeks ago and the next won’t be until October. Some students have been invited to grade slightly early and others who showed capability, but with a bit more work needed, slightly late.

This is shaping up to be a pretty busy one. With students grading for anything from 8th Kyu Yellow belt to 1st Kyu Brown belt.

It will be a HOT, tough grading with lots to get through.

If anyone is a little uneasy on any of the syllabus - now’s the time to shout up!
