Shi Kon Budo Kan
Our Team Leaders are a much valued addition to our Shi Kon Kung Fu Family. They act as positive role models for the junior members of the class, they help demonstrate techniques and act as training buddies to young or shy children in the beginner and lower grade classes. They are a positive group of young people and all our junior students (from green belt level and age 7 to 17) can apply to be a team leader.

They have a slightly different training uniform that's exclusive to them and makes them easily identifiable in class. It can be very helpful for a new or lower graded child to see their peers progressing through the grade levels learning new skills and gaining in self confidence. New beginners can be nervous and are not always confident when trying something new.

Shi Kon Martial Arts is a top class dojo! My sons both attend. We have been going for 3 years now. Caz and Mikey are the best. They make you feel so welcome. They truly care about the children and the parents! Throughout lockdown, they took they time to FaceTime us on a weekly basis. Kept in touch with the kids and making sure they stay on top of they training! They make special effort with each child! They truly put they heart into what they do. I couldn’t thank them enough!

My daughter has grown massively in confidence since attending and loves going to class every Wednesday.
The ladies kickboxing is a fun class and fab workout whilst learning great skills.
Love being part of the Shi Kon Family

On Sunday 6th June 2021 I completed the Shi Kon advanced Tai Chi coaching course, fantastic. It's difficult to explain, briefly, why the courses are so good, but I wanted to try and convey what I gained so others could enjoy the same.
When I started, on the basic course over 3 years ago I joined because I wanted to learn, and experience, more about Tai Chi than I had in the classes I'd tried, under various other teachers over the years.
Although I'd been told by friends that Steve Rowe was a very good teacher and martial artist I'd never been to any of his seminars or classes before starting

My son Zachary absolutely loves coming to kung fu. Mikey and caz are very welcoming and friendly , very encouraging and ready to help. All the team leaders are super friendly and helpful always encouraging the… students. Mikey and the team leads make each session fun. Zachary self confidence in himself has come on leaps and bounds since starting kung fu and always has a smile on his face when his session is over and cant wait to come back for his next session. Would highly recommend Shi kon.

My children have been attending the dojo for the last 5 years and they have all thoroughly enjoyed learning Kung fu. Caz and Mikey are absolutely wonderful with the children and adults alike. They make you feel at ease as soon as you walk through the door. They are extremely professional and very approachable. It’s like going to visit friends once a week.

Brilliant martial arts school - great atmosphere, fantastic coaching and team. Caz and Mikey do a fab job, my son has become so much more confident since starting kung fu, and has learnt a lot about himself whilst practicing kung fu. Caz and Mikey are brilliant with the kids - Mikey makes the lessons fun and versatile with different challenges the kids enjoy and Caz always ensures a smooth running of things, looking after everyone. Cannot recommend Shi Kon enough! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

SkiKon Martial Arts is truly a wonderful place.
It's a real family orientated martial arts centre with magnificent instructors. My child has been attending this Dojo for 3 years and has progressed wonderfully and the learning of Kung Fu has really helped develop him in to a wonderful person.

Thoroughly recommend Shi Kon Martial Arts. My daughter has been training with them since September 2013 (when she was 7 years old) She obtained her junior black belt, joined the demo team and was a team leader. She then joined the adults classes. She’s now moved over to the ladies kick-boxing and loves it. I myself have learnt some Tai Chi there… and recently joined their new Yin Yoga class which is a fabulous bit of ‘me time’ Great trainers who are very patient & encouraging with the students. My daughter & I have made some life-long friends through the club.

I totally recommend Shi Kon martial arts, I started attending ladies kickboxing last year with my daughter, I was petrified but I really didn’t need to be everyone is friendly. The instructors are extremely knowledgeable it’s a great atmosphere and very welcoming. Adult kungfu is also totally recommended everything is broken down and explained you learn at your own pace. It’s great fun and you learn amazing skills with lots of fantastic people. 5stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My children have been doing kung fu for a couple of years now and the confidence, focus and attitude of my two has changed so much over the time. The staff are fantastic and give them time and encouragement when ever it is needed. Amazing group of adults and children team work all round

I have been a martial artist most of my life but I only started training with Shikon about 7 years ago. With the help of Steve Rowe and various members of the Shikon family I have learned more about martial arts and myself in the last 5 years than all of my other training put together. I recommend Shikon to anyone interested in martial arts because not only will you learn a high level of martial skill, but you will learn to become a more well balanced person, capable of dealing with your personal problems in a much more intelligent and positive way. The life skills you learn with Shikon will filter

Shikon is a great place to train. The main man Steve Rowe is one of the most knowledgeable martial arts instructors I have ever come across. He can help you regardless of your martial arts background, so much knowledge is relevant and effective no matter what the style.
I used to travel to Kent from Birmingham to train on some of his courses and to take private lessons, I even went away with them to their annual Czech Republic event, which was fantastic. Everyone is friendly and very giving in their knowledge, highly recommended
