Apart from being naturally gifted martial artists, they bring an infectious enthusiasm and have a thirst for learning. They also look after you and make sure you develop at your own pace, but always so you can reach your potential.” Adult Karate student, 2nd Dan, teacher and Marine Biologist “I started Karate when I was 8 years old. It’s been part of my life ever since, through school, through university and through work. It’s really fun. I love learning and performing Kata; the forms are so elegant. Of course being awarded my belt black was the best, although it’s only the first stage. Yes, it is journey, but it’s taken with Karateka my own age and who have become great friends.” Marina, now working in film and media https://www.uekf.org/karate-at-schools daily 0.75 2021-12-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185287fd04bb90b21364894/6ded0e76-8d05-4cde-80c9-5e9b6a24c6be/M10Nov21-2894a.jpg Karate at Schools Demonstrating wrist control https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185287fd04bb90b21364894/a3534dfc-acaf-4d57-b62d-620557215b78/KarMar13-256a.jpg Karate at Schools Coloured belts demonstrating at a schools tournament https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185287fd04bb90b21364894/13363d46-e85e-4d9c-aa8a-167675cd9da0/KarMar13-232b.jpg Karate at Schools Discipline and intensity, but great fun
