I am writing this review as a parent and as a member. I took my son to karate initially to hope he would gain some important life skills, discipline & fitness with no doubt that he would enjoy it. Not only does he absolutely love it, he loves his teacher, his fellow members and the actual essence of karate which he has begin to grasp a basic understanding of. He is safe and looked after but also disciplined and guided in this excellently run club. I am so relieved we have found this for him as Karate can be a part of who he is for his life now, predominantly thanks to his teacher. I am not a teacher but I am in awe of how a karate teacher, like Andrea, can not only teach children and adults of all ages (my son is 5) but continue on her own journey and learning too, it truly is inspiring. Her love for Martial Arts is apparent as is her passion for the club and teaching, hard work is an understatement. I took up training too and love the fact this is something I can do with my son and hopefully my daughter too when she is old enough. It makes me feel more confident, stronger and much fitter and also relives day to day stresses - a miracle in itself! The social side of the club is absolutely lovely, they go all out with thought and time and give the children party's and get togethers which is invaluable in creating a really strong team spirit! I cannot recommend this club enough, as a parent of a child or as taking it up yourself. You only have to come along and enjoy it for yourself to see the benefits of being part of such a special club. Congratulations to all those closely involved in making this club a wonderful success and may it long continue.
