Classes

Adult and teen students training together in a structured martial arts class focused on fitness, discipline, and technique.
Karate Adults & Teens
The physical and mental benefits of karate for adults and teens are well documented: increased alertness and attention, reduced aggression, better stress management, increased working memory and enhanced emotional well-being. We have highly experienced instructors and international standard facilities to teach each of these core skills. Our new adult beginner classes ensure you can learn in a relaxed, non-threatening environment, catering for both mixed-gender or women’s only classes.

Karate Children

We help your children recognise their potential and reach their goals. We help parents ensure your children are the best they can be, both inside and outside the dojo.

 

  • Karate will get your child active, building strength and flexibility.
  • Learning a new skill will increase their confidence and self esteem.
  • The constant strengthening of neural networks in the brain will help your child practice better self-control.
  • Your child will learn teamwork, collaboration and socialising skills – working in pairs and groups is a common form of instruction at Samurai.
  • The need to be fully mentally present in class improves focus and concentration.
  • Clear rules and boundaries provide structure, and the children need to listen to and follow instructions from the Senseis.
  • Karate teaches children non-violent conflict resolution.
  • On a physical level, exercises like the power bridge improve core strength and shoulder stability.
  • Punching and kicking offer balance and bilateral integration, essential for letter formation and reading.
  • Kicking strengthens large muscle groups, which enhances gross motor co-ordination.
  • Karate focuses on self-improvement, working on specific personal goals.
  • Karate teaches your child to keep moving forward, no matter what social and environmental changes take place. This promotes resilience, determination and grit.

Adult students training together in a warrior-style fitness class focused on strength, conditioning, and teamwork.
Warriorfit

This is about building your body to be capable of doing everyday functional activities. The training exercises mimic common movement patterns like pushing and pulling, bending, lifting, digging, chopping, reaching, jumping, slamming, and so on. We do this with weight and resistance to improve strength and agility in the upper and lower bodies, emphasizing core stability, dexterity and balance.

Self-Defence

On-demand workshops and self-defence ‘street’ training for all genders and all ages. Learn physical and psychological tools to help prevent and overcome dangerous situations. We combine martial arts and self-defence techniques for more confidence in gun, knife and unarmed combat situations.
