Just 2 Weeks To Go

Posted: 01 November, 2025 15:04

Just two weeks to go for the course on Saturday 15th with Sensei John Euden, ESKU Chief Instructor. The price for the course is £15 per person. Well worth attending, even if you're not grading. Please remember to bring your license books so it can be signed.

Following the course, we also have the club kyu grading. It goes without saying, I'm expecting to see everyone grading to be attending as many classes as possible, including the course if you can. If you intend to grade, please speak with Sensei Terry at least a week prior to the day otherwise you may not be able to grade.

Looking forward to seeing everyone there.

Important notice regarding change of associations

Posted: 30 June, 2025 13:38

We have changed the association we are affiliated to from the Traditional Shotokan Karate Association (TSKA) to the England Shotokan Karate Union (E.S.K.U.) and aligning ourselves more closely with Sensei John Euden’s Thanet club, where several of us have trained over the years.

We appreciate all the support given by TSKA and its members over the years, however this is a natural progression for our club, where we have always had close ties with Thanet. Known for its exemplary training and a warm welcome, the training at ESKU is of a very high standard and will help us all develop our karate to a high level as our own club continues to grow and flourish.

Training will continue as normal in regard to our club fixtures.

Any questions, please ask me.
