Worthing Karate & Self Defence, located in Worthing, is where Mind, Body, and Spirit meet practical training. Chris, the founder and lead instructor, brings 15 years of experience from nightclub security and one of the world's largest casino groups. He’s a pro in Physical Intervention and conflict management.
At Worthing Karate Academy, it's all about real-world self-defence skills. Chris and his team teach students how to avoid violence and handle conflicts with good communication and de-escalation techniques. Beyond just defending yourself, the training boosts your confidence, sharpens your strengths, and helps you tackle your weaknesses.
The academy runs like a close-knit family where everyone has your back. No big egos, no intimidation—just a supportive crew that makes you feel part of something bigger.
Martial arts here isn’t just about working out; it's a lifetime journey of growth, physically and mentally. Chris, who has been training for over 35 years, says each year offers new lessons. Many students see their fitness levels soar and lose weight quickly.
Parents, there are classes for kids too. They're designed to be fun and keep them fit while teaching crucial self-defence skills. Kids come away with better confidence, self-esteem, and even leadership skills. There are special programmes focusing on self-protection and anti-bullying.
Chris and the academy are also deeply committed to helping the community. They offer a free eBook on personal safety, are involved in charity work against CCHS, and provide various workshops on things like lone worker safety and first aid training.
Whether you're an adult wanting self-defence training or a parent looking out for your child, Worthing Karate Academy promises practical skills, better fitness, and a sense of community. Chris and his team are dedicated to helping you live a more empowered life.
