The Bushido Shotokan Karate Academy in Kent.

At the BSKA, we honour the traditions of Shotokan Karate which provides all the tools for the development of forms and practical application of karate. Our teachings focus on the three ‘K’s’:

Kihon (basic forms): Blocks, punches, kicks and strikes as well as stances;

Kata (set forms): A variety of a set pattern of moves to demonstrate the perfection and transition of forms. Bunkai is the analysis and application of kata.

Kumite (sparring): Building up self-defence skills starting with basic one-step attacks and blocks with an opponent, progressing to complex sparring patterns and fully freestyle sparring.

Karate is a well-rounded discipline that develops the mind, body and spirit. We welcome everybody who would like to study this wonderful art form. If you are new, an existing student, young or old we look forward to welcoming you to our clubs.
