Classes are buzzing after finishing and people genuinely don't want to leave. There is a very strong community of students who are very welcoming and friendly. I was immediately made to feel part of the club and I only wish I had started sooner.

The club is exceptionally well run at all levels. From the juniors through to the seniors, the level of support and quality of tuition and knowledge is second to none. From the minute you walk in you feel that it is an environment that respects the tradition and history of Kyokushin karate but also recognises its place in modernity.
The membership is welcoming and friendly and approach each lesson with the common goal of improving their own practice and supporting one another to do so. Unlike many martial arts clubs and gyms, where there may be an undercurrent of ego and toxic masculinity, this is simply not the case at this club. From the youngest member through to the oldest, the primary objective is to encourage, learn and support one another. Whilst focus, discipline and a commitment to training are requisite and expected components to each lesson, they are blended beautifully with good humour from Sensei Phil and Senpai Rhian and understanding and an acknowledgement of personal abilities (and that once over 40, your hips may not let you do what you want them to do!)
It is without any doubt a beautifully run, highly professional and well-equipped dojo. Sensei Phil has a wealth of knowledge and experience to draw from with which he supplements your understanding of both what it is you are doing and why you are doing it. Senpai Rhians technical knowledge of kata, ease with which she is able to communicate her command of the subject matter and supportive demeanour make her an excellent tutor. Together they represent some of the best calibre karate instructors you will find anywhere.
If you are thinking of joining but are held back by insecurities related to age, fitness, confidence then dont be. You wont find a more inspiring and affirming environment to be in. If you have children who are thinking of joining, then I would encourage you to encourage them. The benefits to a child in relation to fitness, self-discipline and focus are invaluable.
My only regret with this club, and karate generally, is that I didnt discover it earlier. Dont make that same mistake. Come down and see for yourself. You wont be disappointed.
