I've been part of the Ippon karate family for a few years now, indirectly through my children. They each started with sessions run by sensei Jason (chief instructor) at their school. Concerned as to whether they're too young, my youngest was 4 when she started and now two years on, she is a Brown belt, a little warrior and confident enough to stand up in front of the club and lead them through the warm up and cool down process. My three children (ages 11, 8 and 6) have been going to karate with Ippon at St Marys in Radcliffe for two years, often 3-4 times a week and they love it. The St Marys club (Radcliffe) is run by sensei Phil, supported by sensai's Pat, Jess and Laurie. There is such a family feel in the club with the advanced grades (of all ages) more than willing to help and teach others. To add to all this, there are plenty of additional sessions/courses through the year where all students have the opportunity to train with World class athletes, each champions in their own right, most notably sensei Junior Lefevre (look him up, watch him on youtube). Training at St Marys RC School in Radcliffe, Castle Armoury in Bury, St Bedes School in Morris Green, St Peters and St Pauls in Bolton and St Marys CE School in Prestwich.
