Traditional Shotokan Karate focuses on striking techniques such as kicks and punches, teaching students to control the distance between themselves and multiple opponents. The club starts with simple blocks and strikes against a single opponent to build confidence and skill. As students progress, they are introduced to two or more opponents to learn self-defence from all directions. Advanced techniques such as throws, grapples, and weapons are also taught.
Overall, the 3 Counties Shotokan Karate Club in Chesterfield is committed to teaching traditional karate for self-defence while providing a welcoming and supportive environment for all students, from beginners to black belts.
