Oxford University Karate-Do Shotokai: Traditional karate as taught by Master Mitsusuke Harada Ian Treherne (3rd dan) is the second club instructor.
Oxford University KDS was founded in 2001 by Senior Instructor Minh Chung (5th dan – highest grade in Karate-Do Shotokai). Members include students, staff and locals. We train year round on Monday and Saturday, and also on Wednesdays during term. We are a friendly club, open to all with plenty of opportunity for individual coaching from the senior grades. We practice karate as a martial art, for personal development and self defence (no competitions).
First session of the New Year is tomorrow (Saturday 6th, 3pm in the Dojo)

Thanks to everyone who came along to the Oxford course yesterday, and to Janet & Katie for leading the programme
Following the theme of Irimi (get into the opponent, rather than going round the opponent avoid being hit) at the Oxford course in July, here at Summer School we carried on the theme with bokken & bo. Look forward to seeing you at the Oxford course on 30 September:
