WOW…………...’Cobra Kai’ meets ‘Sei-do-Kai’.
What an amazing experience. Scott one of our Senior Instructors met bad guy ‘John Kreese’ real name ‘Martin Kove’ of the original ‘Karate Kid’ films and the current highly successful worldwide Netflix series ‘Cobra Kai’…
I must say I am actually jealous.. great experience
series 5 of Cobra Kai just to air on Netflix early September.
Scott said Martin was a lovely guy the complete opposite of his on screen character…
Great Picture…

What a great fun double training session tonight led by Andy our Assistant Chief Instructor and thank you all for joining us.
This was Andy’s last training session before he and his family go to live and work in Denmark to take up a fantastic opportunity.
We all wish Andy and his family all the best.
Andy will remain an active lead figure in the club and we will take advantage of his visits home and use Zoom wherever possible.

What a great evening last night, 4 July 22.
It was an honour to have the Chairman of the British Karate Association (Brian Seabright) attend to Lead our Black Belt Exams.
Congratulations on achieving their First Dan Black Belt to Chris and Will (father and son), Cerin, and Jacob and Will (brothers).
Also congratulations to Nick one of our Senior Instructors who passed to Fourth Dan black belt following a showcase of his research, understanding, interpretation and modern day application of an old historical kata ‘Naihanchi’.
These are all excellent achievements and again congratulations, keep up the hard work and dedication.
