Diddy Deshi

Traditionally, young children where not taught Karate because of the extreme physical demands and high levels of concentration involved in the training. However, we have now amended our teaching programmes to cater for this age group. We believe that with appropriate guidance from well-qualified teachers, excellent benefits are to be gained.  Children attending our classes enter a safe and friendly environment where teachers are not only sensitive, qualified and vetted (with CRB Certification - Police Checked), they are also parents themselves. The aim of our Diddy Deshi classes is to provide a smooth, confident transition for children wishing to join our junior level sessions.

Diddy Deshi start at 5 years - 7 years (children aged 4 years can be accepted at the teacher's discretion).
Junior Sessions 8 years +

Fun, Respect and Confidence

Classes are conducted in a completely different way from both junior and adult classes within this school.  The focus here is on fun, whilst incorporating self respect and confidence. We aim to allow children to develop not only physically but with a sense of awareness, co-ordination and concentration.  

Because of the age of children attending these classes, we do not teach specific self-defense skills normally associated with karate, but place emphasis on awareness, confidence and staying safe.
