Phoenix Karate School, established in Kilburn, North West London in the late 70s, is dedicated to fostering the individual excellence of each of its students. With a commitment to uncompromising values, the school aims to equip students with the skills and values necessary to approach life with courage, confidence, and the will to prevail.
Karate training offers numerous benefits, including all-round exercise, improved coordination, agility, and concentration. It also enhances confidence and social skills. At Phoenix Karate School, we offer classes in Goju-Ryu Karate to individuals of all ages and fitness levels. Whether you are looking to get fit and healthy or learn a practical and evolving martial art, you are welcome to join us at any of our dojos.
We provide regular gradings, national and international competitions, in-house seminars, and visits from independent instructors.
Goju-Ryu Karate is one of the original Okinawan styles of Karate. The name itself represents the balance between toughness and softness, as “GO” means tough and hard, while “JU” means soft. This philosophy extends to life in general, emphasising the importance of finding harmony between the two aspects. In our Goju-Ryu Karate programme, students learn physical techniques and develop mental resilience and discipline.
In our structured syllabus for children aged 5 and above, we prioritise the development and progression of each individual. We believe in a fun and light-hearted, yet serious approach to teaching. Through our children's programme, your child will gain confidence, self-control, self-discipline, commitment, and mental focus, all while enjoying the process of learning and training.
Our adult programme focuses on fitness, wellbeing, and self-defence. Whether you are a beginner, intermediate, or advanced student, we welcome you to join our classes. Karate training not only enhances physical strength, flexibility, and coordination but also instils confidence. Our Goju-Ryu Karate system emphasises the importance of balance and provides practical self-defence skills.
