Kenshukai Karate - East London

Kenshukai Karate East London

Welcome to Kenshukai - a training place where everyone can take part and excel.

We offer karate classes for children from the age of 5, as well as adults. In fact, being a family-oriented club, we encourage parents to join their kids and often have whole families attend and train together. With some of the oldest students being well into their sixties, there is no reason for people not to have a go, whether they're 5 or 65!

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: When will classes reopen?
A: Following the government's guidelines on reopening of gyms, we have prepared covid-19 compliant procedures to reopen safely. It's now a matter of waiting for the halls to reopen. Some classes will be ready sooner than others - please see the list above.

Q: How old do you have to be to start?
A: We take children from the age of 5 (there are no restrictions on the age of adult students!)

Q: Are there any spaces available?
A: We always welcome new students to come and join us. Some locations are more popular, however, and may require people to go on a waiting list.

Q: Can I cancel a pre-booked class without losing money?
A: Yes, if you cancel at least 2 hours before your scheduled session then credit will be saved on your account. Since spaces are limited, this time has to be reserved to allow people on a waiting list to come and take your place. Cancelling less than 2 hours before the class will result in forfeited class fee.

Q: What payment methods are accepted?
A: We accept all major credit and debit cards including Visa & Mastercard (cash is also accepted).
