Hertfordshire KDS – Karate-do Shotokai (Bushey club)
Not managed on Matador yetKarate
This is the Bushey branch of Hertfordshire KDS, a volunteer-run, not-for-profit Karate-do Shotokai club that opened in late 2024. Karate-do Shotokai is a style with roots in traditional Shotokan, founded by Master Mitsusuke Harada, and the club belongs to the UK KDS federation. Sessions are for adults aged 17 and over and follow a set pattern of warm-up, kata, kumite and technique work, finishing with a stretch. Sparring is kept at a level suited to each student's experience. Newcomers are welcome, including people who have trained in other styles, and there is no separate beginners' class. Training takes place in a hired parish hall, and the instructors hold DBS checks and first aid qualifications. The branch also runs other clubs across Hertfordshire.
