Welcome

Worcester Shotokan Karate Club (WSKC) is dedicated to teaching traditional Shotokan karate and the club is run strictly on a 'non profit' basis.

Membership of WSKC offers students the opportunity of travel within the UK and worldwide to attend seminars held at other clubs affiliated to the IJKA. The Events page has details of IJKA seminars.

Shotokan karate is a Japanese martial art. We welcome anyone aged 12 or above, regardless of previous karate experience, or gender. You will be given detailed and sympathetic instruction, carried out in a systematic manner with due regard to physical ability, placing maximum emphasis on your welfare to avoid injury.

New students wishing to learn karate do not need special clothing or equipment in the first instance - a tracksuit bottom and sweatshirt or similar loose clothing will be perfectly adequate. However a Keikogi (Karate training suit) should be acquired after a student has completed several weeks of regular training. We can assist our students in obtaining Keikogi at very reasonable prices. Find out more on the  FAQ page.
