Basingstoke SSKA Club

Welcome to Basingstoke SSKA Club, a Karate school located in Basingstoke, England. As part of the Southern Shotokan Karate Association (SSKA), our club has been established for 20 years and is led by Sensei Tony Kimber, a 5th dan instructor.

At Basingstoke SSKA Club, we pride ourselves on being a small and friendly club that welcomes individuals of all abilities and ages, from 8 to 80. Whether you are new to Karate or returning to the sport, we offer a supportive environment where you can learn and progress at your own pace.

Our primary focus is on teaching practical self-defence techniques while also promoting physical fitness. Karate is not only a great way to stay in shape, but it also provides an opportunity to meet new people and build friendships within our community.

In our club, there is no pressure to grade or compete, although we do offer opportunities for those who wish to do so. We believe that everyone should have the freedom to practise Karate in a way that suits their individual goals and aspirations.

For those interested in joining our club, we offer a free trial class, which is obligation-free. This gives you the chance to experience our classes first-hand and decide if Karate is the right sport for you. To book your free trial class, simply contact us using the provided contact information.

Our instructors at Basingstoke SSKA Club are committed to providing a safe and enjoyable learning environment. All our instructors have undergone enhanced DBS checks to ensure the safety of our students.

If you have any questions or would like more information about our club, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We look forward to welcoming you to Basingstoke SSKA Club and helping you embark on your Karate journey.
