The style of karate that we teach is Seiki Juku Karate Do. It is the style that Matt personally grew up studying and it is the one we feel confident and comfortable in presenting. It is a very well rounded style that encourages the mind, body and emotional development of its participants.
It is a style that expects high standards and therefore ensures that its students are not led into a false sense of security and confidence through being easliy awarded levels of improvement.
