Karate Training for Everyone

At Enfield Karate Club, we preserve the true spirit of traditional Japanese karate, following the teachings passed down from Gichin Funakoshi, the founder of Shotokan.
Our style, Seishin‑Ryu — meaning “the style of pure spirit” — emphasises not only physical technique, but also the cultivation of mind, character, and respect.

“The way of the empty hand.”

Karate-dō, which originated on the island of Okinawa in southern Japan and was later refined throughout the country, is a discipline rooted in self-control, humility, and perseverance.
Through dedicated practice, students develop powerful strikes, solid stances, and precise kata forms but more importantly, they learn to face challenges with calm focus and unwavering determination.

Enfield Karate Club welcomes men, women, and children aged 7 and above, whether beginners or advanced practitioners. Under the guidance of experienced instructors, students develop strength, balance, confidence, and mental clarity.
Parents often notice remarkable improvements in behaviour, concentration, and school performance among children who train regularly.

With over three decades of teaching experience, Enfield Karate Club continues to honour the traditional values of Shotokan
— discipline, respect, and spirit —
while nurturing a supportive, inspiring community for all who walk this path.
