Karate is a form of self-defence that in its modern form originates from the Okinawan islands of Japan. The true origins of Karate may in fact be in China, or indeed India where Martial Arts have existed for thousands of years. Karate is a Japanese word that means empty hand. Zenshin means to progress or to advance or move forward.
The average class format involves learning basic striking, blocking & kicking techniques, as well as some grabs, holds and streetwise self-defence. Students are also taught stances and Kata (pre-arranged sequences of movements that represent both attack and defence). Kumite (sparring) is also practised in class. This is primarily non-contact to allow the students to practise in safety and build confidence.
Over the last few years Zenshin Karate has expanded into Zenshin Martial Arts and now includes Street Defence classes, weapons training, specialist female classes and offers one of the most comprehensive systems in Martial Arts in the West
