Karate - not just for the kids!
We are delighted to welcome Adults to SJK Karate
as new Students. As we always like to get to know our students,
it goes without saying that with us you will not just be a number,
but a vital part of our martial arts school, which means you will
be treated like all the rest of our students - like one of the
family! We like to give our students the best possible chance
to succeed and make a point of believing in them. Because of this
we are known as "the friendly club".
Do you want to learn one of the most exciting
Martial Arts in the world, which includes - Shotokan Karate and
"Street style" Self Defence. Our adults and karate kids
(known as "Young Dragons") can grade up to and including
black belt in our North London Dojo's.
It is also a wonderful way to "Keep Fit".
Our style of karate has all the benefits of kickboxing
and Taekwondo with none of the dangers, as we use light contact
only. You won't be disappointed if you join us. We have a lot
of students who come to us from other clubs and they are surprised
at the high level of our tuition.
Karate for Adults - Over 30 years at the Top!
One of the reasons that the School of Japanese
Karate is so good for adults and children is because unlike most
other forms of exercise the brain is exercised at the same time
as the body. Thinking while you exercise keeps the brain alert
and fit.
The MARTIAL ARTS moves that are learned at SJK
are imprinted in the mind by practicing over and over again. Not
only does this exercise both the body and the mind but because
the moves become "second nature" you will respond to
surprise attacks in the street.
This also keeps the mind and the body in good
condition for old age. Many people, both men and women, continue
training in this style of martial art well into their sixties,
seventies and even eighties, practicing at a pace suitable to
them.
If you trained in karate when you were younger
(at SJK or any other karate club) and you would like to get back
to training contact Shihan David Alleyn 6th Dan Chief Instructor
SJK. Shihan David being of mature years himself understands the
need to complete something later in life that was started at a
younger age and will do all he can to help.
School of Japanese Karate have many black belts
who have returned to training in later life after a long lay-off,
some gaining their black belts in their fifties and sixties. They
also have a number of girls and boys who obtained their black
belts in their teens and one at the tender age of nine.
Also only available from the School of Japanese
Karate is a unique DVD for beginners from their "Karate Made
Easy"series. Highly Recommended.
You can join us for as little as £18
Adults and £15 Children
The fee represents the cost for the whole four-week
course (one lesson each week) and includes a free lesson at the
level you wish to train (beginners, intermediate and advanced).
The membership during this time is also free.
You are also able to choose the day and the location
that suits best.
If you are a parent and interested to offer your
child a karate training, too, you can optimize your time by attending
our 'family classes', where you can train along with your child
for four weeks. But please keep in mind that the session with
children will be only one hour long, as generally that represents
the upper limit of their attention span.
Intermediate classes are taught separately from
the beginners.
Also the level of instructions is tailored to
student's growing interest.
We recognize previous gradings.
