KARATE HUDDERSFIELD
Family Combat Karate class open to ages 9yrs to adult in Huddersfield
At Huddersfield Combat Karate old school ‘all in’, full contact ‘Knockdown’ Karate that combines Karate with JuJitsu clinch & ground fighting. Kakuto (Combat) Karate does not contain Kata, but instead focuses drilling applied techniques with a training partner & Knockdown style sparring (Jissen Kumite). Our training comprises punches, kicks, throwing, submissions & ground fighting along with conditioning with its roots in the Kyokushin lineage of Karate. Its never too late to start training Karate as we emphasise ‘Karate-do’ is about personal development & should be a way of life not just a combat sport. Join us at Huddersfield Combat Karate.
At Huddersfield Combat Karate, Combat Karate is not only a sport or a means of self-defence, it is a complex path to personal development that combines physical exercise, mental discipline, and spiritual growth. The martial art as a whole requires not only strength and techniques but also deep inner balance, self-control, determination, and a very strong will. In Combat Karate, the body is used as an instrument of the spirit. After constant hard and long training, the physical transformation of athletes is connected with the inner development of the personality. The qualities each trainee acquires are fundamental for success in martial arts and all aspects of life.
