Shotokan Karate Kirkintilloch - Zanshin Kai

I've been attending this club for six years now, feels like a big family, very supportive and encouraging. Also great for self defence and confidence building.

I can't speak highly enough of Zanshin Kai. The members span a wide range of ages and abilities, from absolute beginners to some exceptionally experienced martial artists. Everyone is made welcome and solid friendships are made. Whether you just want to get fit, pick up a new skill, learn self defense or just get out of the house and do something, the Zanshin Kai family will welcome you.

Zanshin kai is a fantastic karate club. Kenny is a great teacher and has tons of knowledge. Loads of talented students and they are very friendly. If you're looking to take up karate, weather it may be for getting fit, self defence or as a way of life, Zanshin kai is the right club for you.

Started Karate at the age of 16 and was hooked right away, after 7 years of training had to give it up due to a location and life change. 27 years later a Karate club started in my local village who were students of Sensei Davis. Although it was a small class i could see the enthusiasm for Karate. Thanks to Sensei Davis, Glen, Bell, Loney and all at Zanshin Kai 5 years after joining I made it to 1st Dan and still have the hunger for another one. Great club, great people what more can be said.

I started training with Zanshin Kai 10 years ago with my husband and sons, then aged 6 and 11. I had never done any martial arts and didn't have high expectations of myself, as a middle-aged unfit woman. I'm now a black belt (1st Dan) my sons have both graded to 2nd Dan and my husband is a 4th Dan. I'm so proud of them all. All of the teachers (sensei) are excellent, challenging and encouraging as necessary. The club is wonderful for families and gives a great chance to have fun with your kids, whatever age they are. Lots of parents bring their kids along and end up joining in enthusiastically. I'm no athlete, but training really helped me regain my figure after the kids came along. We train with McRae at the Lennoxtown sessions twice a week. The friendliness and welcome of all of the clubs is a real hallmark of Zanshin Kai.
