Karate Introduction

Karate Jutsu Kai is an internationally acclaimed style of Karate-do affiliated to the IBK (International Kyokushin Budokai Kan).

The style continues to evolve in today's society providing a firm basis for self-defence and a fitness regime, which challenges students both physically and mentally. Over time students soon develop a martial attitude and a clear understanding that Karate Jutsu can be implemented not only in combat, but in everyday life. In short, one learns to fight, so one does not need to fight, and as such, each person evolves with confidence, dedication, respectful values and a core belief that Karate-do is a constant study of oneself.  

Today, the Northiam Dojo under the guidance and instruction of Shihan John Wilson (6th Dan) who is himself still under the perpetual tuition of Kancho Creton (Chief Instructor.)  Shihan John founded Northiam Karate Jutsu Kai in 1985 and, in the past twenty-five years it has produced over thirty black belts, as well as numerous national and international champions.

At Northiam, beginners are welcome and initial training is in shorts or tracksuit bottoms with T-shirts. Beginners should be open minded, patient and prepared to take on new challenges.
