Club Information

KARATE

Karate is a system of self defence and physical culture developed and refined in Okinawa and Japan. There are several styles of karate, they all use slightly different training methods and they all place varying degrees of emphasis on issues such as the speed, strength and range of techniques practised. Shotokan karate (our style) emphasises a balanced development of all these elements, taught within a system which instils confidence and self control.

 SOUTH NOTTS SHOTOKAN KARATE CLUB

The club was established in Keyworth in 1985 by the senior instructor Rob Manning who is a 4th dan black belt. The club is affiliated to the KUGB (Karate Union of Great Britain) which is a democratic non-profit making organisation recognised by the official European and World governing bodies.

The fundamental objective of the club is to develop the art, sport and practice of shotokan karate in South Nottinghamshire.

The club meets at Keyworth Leisure Centre and Holme Pierrepont National Water Sports Centre.

We have a friendly and welcoming environment for adults of any age, young people and children from eight.
