The best traditional Karate school in the area. Also the only the True Original Matayoshi Kobudo school in the UK.... Others wish they were this good. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to train in Karate or Kobudo. My daughter has been trained by Sensei Bateman since she was 4 years old and also is training in Kobudo from 14 years old. I was so impressed that I joined Kobudo and wish I did so much sooner. If you want to learn Karate or Matayoshi Kobudo look no further than this school.read more

I've been training with Kodokan Martial Arts for the past 16 years and have enjoyed every moment of it. The instruction... is world class and the other students are great people.On top of the weekly sessions, there are extra events put on throughout the year giving students access to a much higher level and variety of training than is available at many similar schools.I cannot recommend Kodokan Martial Arts enough.read more

Kodokan Martial Arts is a true martial arts school, helping to retain traditions laid down centuries ago. Knowledge and... skills are passed down to the highest standard, with a strong emphasis on respect and etiquette, within a welcoming and friendly atmosphere.read more

I started training in anshin ryu with this club almost 7 years ago and wouldn’t go anywhere else! This is traditional... Karate - teaching you etiquette, the theory to the art and the physical aspect. It can be hard but it’s worth it.read more

This martial arts school offers so much for all ages. Chris and Fred teach respect to others and for self with... traditional values. Not to mention the actual karate itself!!. We have boys of various ages who go, and it took a while for them for realise hard work pays off so it was well worth sticking it out . They get to use their energy up outside of the house so it's great for us!!!read more
