Welcome to Tooting Karate Club Tooting Karate Club is a friendly place to learn traditional Okinawan Goju Ryu style Karate. Under the expert guidance of Sensei Linda Marchant, a 6th Dan Black Belt and world champion, you'll learn a wide range of techniques from kicking and blocking, to traditional set forms (or Kata), supplementary strengthening exercises, self defence and pad work.
As a traditional style of Karate, our emphasis is on building healthy minds and bodies and teaching fighting skills that are of practical use in self defence situations. You can improve your fitness and confidence levels drastically through the practice of Goju Ryu Karate and there are many opportunities to train with masters as well as enjoy social and competitive events. When you join us, you are joining a vibrant club within a much bigger organisation that can give you direct access to some of the highest graded and most respected karate masters in the world. We train twice weekly at our club which is located in Tooting, South West London. It's walking distance from Tooting Broadway Tube station (on the Northern Line) and there are separate classes for adults and children on both Tuesdays and Saturdays. You are warmly invited to take a look through our website to get a better understanding about our style of karate. If you'd like to take that interest into practice, do drop us an email or make an introductory phone call and you will be most welcome to either watch a class or come and join in.
