Shotokan and the WSKU

For decades, our instructors have trained under top Japanese senseis and alongside Britain's most formidable karateka.

This vast experience and deep understanding set WSKU apart from other dojos.

The only karate governing body recognised by World and European Karate Federations (WKF and EKF) and the International Olympic Committee.
