I’m the founder of King’s Karate Club and also teach Karate in Schools as part of their after school activities and PPA.
I have over 40 years’ experience teaching Martial Arts which include Karate, Krav Maga, Thai Boxing, Jui Jitsu and Self-Protection to children of all ages. I also teach fitness, strength and conditioning classes. This has given me a good ability to pitch instructions at the right level and get the best out of individuals and teams.
I am DBS certified and have successfully completed the Safe Guarding children course.
I am also the Child Protection Officer for the Shindo Kai Karate Association. Duties include ensuring all karate instructors have the appropriate in date DBS Certificate (Full/Part). Assisting in the processing of the applications and dealing with any sensitive issues that rise during the application process.
Martial Arts are a great form of exercise which provides a whole body workout with an emphasis on balance, co-ordination and aerobic fitness.
The complex movements required also challenge the mind and fully engage the young student as they try and master the stances, blocks, punches and kicks, plus Japanese terms and language.
The key benefit, in many ways unique to karate is the code or ‘Do’. This promotes self-control, self-respect and respect for others. Importantly for head teachers and their staff, karate teaches non-violence and is anti-bullying.
I would be happy to a demonstration class at your school. Any child wishing to take part would just need their standard PE kit.
