sensei smith karate

We are a family run martial arts school teaching a blended style based on Shotokan Karate and Sport Karate. 

Sensei Smith is a headteacher of a secondary school and therefore very equipped to support young people in learning. Most of our students come to us via word of mouth and we aim to develop high quality martial arts in a fun and safe environment.


Sensei Smith has  combined his expertise in Martial Arts and in children's education to form a highly effective approach to teaching martial arts. Just like in schools, the core aims for children's development in martial arts are confidence, honesty, resilience, focus, respect, perseverance, self-discipline, self-control and pro-social skills (rather than anti-social).


 Above all, Sensei Smith Karate is about providing the very best approaches to Martial Arts teaching you will find, at the best value for money and making sure every single student is seen as a valuable member of the club and really enjoying the classes.


 We run two classes on a Friday evening during term time.

Junior class (5yrs+) starts at 5.35pm

Advanced class (12yrs+) starts at 6.30pm
