Karate (Japanese for "empty hand") is a Japanese martial art that combines a variety of punching, striking, kicking and blocking techniques.

In our course we train Shotokan, but other styles (e.g. Goju-Ryu, Shito-Ryu) are also represented and all are welcome. The training begins with a warm-up and stretching phase. The training is then divided into kihon (basic training), kata (forms) and kumite (free fighting).

Beginners start with simple basic techniques and over time participants learn increasingly complex combinations and techniques.

You don't need to bring anything except sportswear. If available, you can bring a karate-gi and gloves for kumite.

Note: The training takes place barefoot.

You can join at any time.
