Becoming GKR Karate’s International Director of Coaching

Shihan Anthony highlighted what the class will entail…

I’ve home-trained regularly for many years so I’m used to training in a confined area. I’m excited to be sharing some of my regular drills with everyone and I hope you’ll find the class both exciting and useful for your own home-training.

KIHON: We shall be mixing in some strength and explosive exercises while practicing our Kihon (basics), which ensures we are developing our mind and body together. The goal is to improve technique whilst also increasing speed, power, endurance and mental toughness (karate spirit). We will also cover modified versions of these drills for anyone who has an injury or simply wants to go at an easier pace.

KUMITE: As combat relies on reacting both correctly and quickly, we shall work on some defensive and attacking reaction drills (higher grades can choose more advanced techniques).

KATA: With a confined space we shall only work on combinations in kata. I shall have everyone work on a couple of chosen combinations, and following this, each student is free to choose any combination from any kata they wish as we shall be working on the physiology behind the moves, rather than the specific techniques themselves.

DON’T MISS YOUR CHANCE TO BE PART OF THIS EXPERIENCE!

Why GKR Karate?

GKR creates the right environment for our members to train in. Although we promote self defence and fitness, our style also fosters positive values, confidence, discipline, focus and well being. GKR teaches you not only how to punch and kick, it teaches you to be a better person.

We encourage students of all ages, from all walks of life to join our club and be part of the supportive ‘family’ that is GKR Karate.

Self Defence

Synonymous with martial arts, self defence and inner self confidence are one of the key takeaways from regular training. From the age of 5 GKR teaches basic self defence and extraction moves, continuing right through to our senior grades.
Weight Loss

Karate is a great way to lose or maintain a healthy weight, with most classes consisting of aerobic, stretching and toning activities. For those who may not have exercised in some time, GKR provides a supportive environment where students can train at their own pace and physical ability. Our classes are a mixture of men, women and children of all ages.
Focus

Many parents are keen to see their children develop greater focus and discipline through their martial arts training, and GKR’s classes provide the perfect environment. Instructors teach in a respectful and supportive atmosphere through karate inspired games, activities and drills.

Family

GKR promotes a family environment, encouraging kids, parents and relatives to all train in the same class. Staying a few karate grades behind your children, will encourage them to continue a regular training program.
Respect

As a traditional Japanese martial arts, karate promotes respect to our instructors, our club, each other and most importantly ourselves. This is a key part of your learnings as a student of GKR karate.
Friendships

Although karate is considered a solo sport, it is still the foundation for many life long friendships. Classes include games and partner work where children and adults alike take the opportunity to learn about and bond with their fellow class mates.
