Bushi No Te Kai Karate

Traditional Okinawan Karate across the South East of England

Welcome to the home of Bushi no te Kai. We have been teaching and training Traditional Okinawan Karate classes since 2008 in Kent and across the South East of England.

As a club we are fully committed to providing our students with a quality martial art experience. We are continually working on the evolution and further development of karate, its philosophies and benefits for our students. Being a traditional club we maintain the origins and intentions of the original masters by teaching self protection and fitness through training. Our classes are taught within the etiquette and traditions of Okinawan Karate which creates a positive learning environment for students.
