We teach Karate which is a Japanese Martial Art. Karate challenges you both physically and mentally. This being just one of the many benefits. The mental discipline required to learn karate along with the physical requirements, all help our students to lead healthier lives. I can expect learning in a structured format followed by most martial arts.

We advise that you turn up wearing a t-shirt and track suit bottoms. Be prepared to train in bare feet. After a few weeks you should purchase a karate suit and any equipment as advised by the instructor. It is a requirement that evidence of your grade should be produced for inspection, this must be in the form of a Karate licence where the grade has been endorsed by a grading officer.

My 3 children started a couple of month’s ago, shy and unconfident but with the help of all the wonderful warriors there and the instructor’s they are now coming out of their shell and slowly becoming more confident. I cannot rate this place enough. The warriors are of all ages but they all help each other and have a great team spirit. I love watching them train they are really amazing to watch! Some serious skills in this place. Hoping my 3 achieve their goals with the help of the Rochdale Warriors!
