At Kokoro Bishops Stortford Kyokushin Dojo, martial arts training isn't just a workout—it's a way of life. Nestled in Bishop's Stortford, this club is all about karate training that boosts your fitness, technique, and power in a no-nonsense but friendly setting.
Picture this: Kihon (basics), Kata (pre-determined moves), and Kumite (controlled sparring). That's the heart of Kokoro’s training regime. Leading the charge is Shihan Liam Keaveney, a seasoned pro with a 7th Dan black belt and a lifetime of karate knowledge.
Kokoro isn't just a name; it means "right mind, right heart, and right spirit." And that's exactly what the club preaches. Through a blend of tradition and top-notch dojo spirit, they teach you to master the basics and beyond. Think austerity, sincerity, and effort.
Dojo etiquette? It's the real deal here. Guided by the Dojo Kun, Kokoro shapes not just your moves but also your behaviour. Adult classes run every Monday and Wednesday in Hatfield Broad Oak, Bishop's Stortford, and at just £20 a month, it’s a steal.
Got no gear? No worries. Shorts, tracksuit bottoms, and a t-shirt will do. But don't forget to bring a water bottle to stay hydrated!
Liam’s not just any instructor—he’s the Chairman of the British Karate Kyokushinkai (BKK), Secretary General of the International Federation of Karate, and President of the Irish Karate Kyokushinkai. This guy's trained with the best around the world, even in Japan.
In short, Kokoro Bishops Stortford Kyokushin Dojo offers more than just karate lessons. It’s about self-improvement and self-defence in true Kyokushin style. Ready to dive in?
