Grantham Shotokan Karate Club group picture
Grantham Shotokan Karate Club was formed in 2003 by its senior instructor Sensei Geoff Dixon (4th Dan). Originally known as 'Allington & Whatton Kenshinkan Karate Club, the club has gone from strength to strength with originally only a handful of members; it now has over 40 people registered.
We practise traditional Shotokan Karate in a safe and family-friendly environment. We enter local and national competitions throughout the year and hold one day and residential courses. The club is affiliated to the English Shotokan Alliance and Japan Karate-Do (England) International.
The club has been training in Foston Village Hall for two years now and has 'demonstrated' its activities at the annual summer Foston Fete for the past 2 to 3 years. Our members range in age from 6 years upwards (our oldest being a spritely 71 years of age!). Children and adults are always welcome, whether they are beginners or returning karateka.
Training sessions are as follows:-
| Day | Venue | Times | Grade |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monday | Foston Village Hall | 7pm-8.30pm | All grades |
| Tuesday | Bottesford VC Hall | 7pm-8.30pm | All Grades |
| Sunday | Allington Village Hall | 5pm-6pm | Black and Brown Belts |
| Sunday | Allington Village Hall | 6.00pm-7.30pm | All Grades |
