Shinseikyu Karate Academy

About

In Harlow, Essex, Shinseikyu Karate Academy teaches a blend of Shotokan and Goju Ryu karate alongside self-defence. Classes are open to children, young people and adults, and the academy aims to offer a safe, friendly setting where everyone is welcome regardless of age, gender, learning needs, race, religion or sexuality. The lead instructor has trained under Japanese, European and UK-based senseis and has years of experience teaching self-defence locally.

Karate is a striking art that generally builds fitness, coordination, focus and confidence. A typical class at a traditional karate club involves basics, forms (kata) and partner work, with students progressing through graded belts at their own pace, which makes it a good choice for families training together.
