Karate provides all of the good things that you would want for any child, a caring atmosphere in which to meet new friends, build self esteem, self confidence, self discipline, respect for themselves and others, a very enjoyable way to become flexible and keep fit. It exercises both body and mind and I know of no other sport that provides so much benefit to children and adults alike.

We focus on training our athletes up to best standards to compete in national & international competitions. We have a variety of instructors with different skill sets to suit different individuals. Most of our group training sessions are held in the evening, during the week. These sessions are split between different age groups to maximise the socialising between individuals whilst enjoying the sessions.

History Report

Sale Karate Club was established in 1978 by Sensei Eric Tomlinson at Sale West Community Centre Manchester, a few years later it was taken over by Sensei Dave Wraxall. Since then it has grown from strength to strength. The club was originally established to 'give something back to the community' and this tradition has continued until today.

Child Safe Guarding Report

Each one of us is different and there is more than one way of understanding our world. The Sale Dojo instructors manage to encompass this in their classes which encourages all its members. I love the role of Child Support Officer because of how members really do blossom within the karate community at the club.

Positive: Professionalism
We have not only attended Karate sessions but also held a Birthday party here.
Best birthday party ever according to the birthday boy.
Party wise- Clean and well looked after with a bouncy castle and 2 spacious rooms for lots of free play.

Having 2 girls who train regularly at this amazing club I can honestly say sale dojo is amazing in every aspect. They are a family club with an outstanding ethos. From day one until now I knew my girls would get the guidance they needed to progress and now they are both currently on the England squad I believe my thoughts were right from the beginning 💯 the best club in England. Thank you 🙏

A brilliant club. Our daughter has loved being part of this amazing club. It has provided her with great opportunities, training and brilliant instructors. We all felt welcome from her first visit to the club and feel part of a family community. Cannot recommend them enough.

From Day 1 Sale Dojo has been amazing. They really know how to make your child feel included and at the same time they also instil the values of the dojo.
I couldn’t recommend Sale Dojo high enough.
