8 reasons why our Karate will change your child . . .
Our training is better because our curriculum can be available 24/7.
At GSK, our priority is to get you and/or your child to successfully achieve your next belt whether it be yellow belt or Black belt. We provide online training videos, tailored for each belt level to aid you in your training. This means you can train 24/7 anywhere, anytime when it suits you! And if you missed a class, you can catch up with what you missed.
There is way more to Karate than you may think . . .
At GSK, we have comprehensive, exclusive books to show you exactly why, what, when and how to move to maximise your bodies efficiency and power. How to breathe, think and focus. Not to mention what not to do too as well!
Building confidence is about building success on success.
Our aim is for you and/or your child to be successful no matter what road you/they take.
Being part of a worldwide organisation has major benefits!
For a start, you get to have friends all over the world! You get to travel to Japan, and you get to train with some truly amazing like-minded people from all over the world. The best part is the depth of knowledge you gain from training with true tradition masters as well as international champions.
Each rank/belt you receive is recognised in over 100 countries.
This is important because if you are part of a big organisation or group, it can mean that in years to come, when you want to travel to another country, your belt is recognised with WSKF clubs around the world.
We take you and your child’s safety very seriously.
You may not be aware, but Karate and martial arts clubs are required to have their instructors do a government certified coaching course every few years and be working with kids approved and first aid approved. All our blackbelt instructors are required to do this!
Why the ‘hard road’ is actually the ‘easier road’!
Many kids, and adults for that matter, don’t understand that taking the harder road is actually the easier and quicker road in the long run. At GSK, we try very hard to instil this thinking in our student’s training. This is why successful Karate students are often be very successful in many other areas of their lives because it develops a good work ethic and mindset for the long term.
We work on improving you in more ways than one!
Karate is really about self-perfection – long term self-perfection – about continually trying to become a better person not just physically in your training but in your thinking. How you think about your behaviour, how you move, how you treat yourself and others can make a big difference to your life both now and in the future. In our club you will learn aspects of Japanese culture that are commonplace in Japan.
