Valleys Karate Jutsu

Practical karate lessons in Devon with physical and mental benefits.

10/01/2022

So after speaking on the weekend about opportunities and events …
We could increase our tournament training and ensure we put our best foot forward.

This event wouldn’t be just about winning, it’s the experience everyone would gain individually and collectively. I will leave you with this for now but I will be chasing this up.

Let’s go VKJ 2022!!

24/12/2021

Only 2 people out of 100 will achieve black belt statistically. That means only 2% of people have pushed themselves to see what they are made of! They stuck out training over a prolonged period and never gave up!

I have been blessed with an amazing bunch of students, over the past 5+ years I have seen these wonderful individuals grow. Each year they develop the traits that will allow them to go anywhere in life! They all had the same dream and tonight WE made it a reality!

This evening 8 people have battled with their minds, body and soul for 3 1/2 hours! They have achieved something some people search their whole lives to find, they have found the elusive victory within! And I am so proud of you!

8 /34 students means we are sitting at 23.5% have made it to black belt!
Go VKJ!!

So returning is a fun subject at the moment.
So I can offer an outdoor session this Sunday from 10-11.In the car park or on the grass.

It can be as many people as we like as long as you are socially distant from people who aren’t in your household.

It will be taught as group sessions useful to all abilities. I will vary the session accordingly.

Sessions will be usual hourly rate.

I am able to do 1-2-1 sessions(1 household) indoor sessions if people want it. From 9-10, 11-12 and 12-1.

Finally this should be for about four weeks before any other changes may occur.

Thanks for your patience and I hope to see your wonderful faces training soon!

Message me what you would like to book in for 07966088418.

Hey so due to the recent change in tiers karate is once again stopping until further notice. 😞

In the mean time you can practice what you remember or you can use the YouTube video.

Alternatively if you wish to have a 1-2-1 session or me to teach people from the same household, this is still permitted.
£25 for an hour. The hours will be 9-10 , 10-11, 11-12.
12-1 is already booked.

I hope this will change back again very soon!

I just want to quickly say a massive thanks to everyone for sticking with me and our karate throughout this year!!

Happy New Year to all!!

Hello All!

Due to everything that’s going on, I have decided to be responsible and stop karate for time being.
If you want to continue training in a couple weeks let me know and I will be happy to discuss if enough want too.

Keep safe everyone!

Good Morning All!

So this Sunday (tomorrow) we have an opportunity to train with Tiverton’s Shotokan Karate club. The session will be from 3.30-6 pm. In that time we will have a normal training session and tournament training.
The session will be £7 and I would recommend any higher grades Blue and above considering this session.

As a result I will only be teaching 9-10 kids class and 10-11 family class this Sunday. It is a one off but this opportunity might lead to other things in the future.

The afternoon training will be held -
Gables Rd, Willand, Cullompton EX15 2PL

Just call me with any questions if you have any on 07966088418.
