SHOTOKAN KARATE
Shotokan is regarded worldwide as the most dynamic martial art ever to come out of Japan. It is known for fast and powerful techniques that contribute to make it a fantastic form of self defence. It is the original "mixed martial art" with all elements of attack and defensive techniques.
But the strongest aspect of Karate is the development of a positive, strong and confident character.
Leicester karate club has internationally renowned teachers who have trained in Japan for many years and have a strong passion for the art and an enjoyment in teaching new students.
In 2026 our karate club will be celebrating it's 60th Anniversary!
