About
At the Simon Coope Karate School (SCKS) in Coalville, passion for martial arts runs deep. Founded by Matthew Coope, who earned his blackbelt by age 10, and supported by his brother David Coope, a blackbelt at 9, SCKS is rooted in family tradition and dedication.
SCKS is committed to teaching traditional Wado Ryu karate, one of the four recognised styles of karate. With a track record that boasts over 200 blackbelts and multiple national champions, SCKS is synonymous with excellence in both competition and traditional martial arts.
Training at SCKS offers more than just local expertise. Through an expansive global network, students have opportunities to train with top instructors around the world, including in Japan.
At SCKS, karate isn't just about combat; it's about fitness and well-being. The full-body workout offered by karate makes it ideal for adults aiming to stay fit and children seeking a constructive outlet for their energy. Newcomers are warmly welcomed, regardless of skill level, and supported every step of the way.
Flexible membership options are available to fit individual needs. For one lesson per week, the fee is £26 per month, while unlimited attendance, including grading fees and future licences, is £52.50 per month. Family discounts are also on offer, making it easier for everyone to get involved.
