South London Shotokan Karate Club has taught traditional Shotokan karate in South London since 1988 and is a member club of JKA England. Classes run at a first-floor multi-purpose hall within a sixth-form college in Clapham South, with a beginners and improvers session open to adults and children from ten, followed by a session for intermediate and senior grades. The club is led by Chief Instructor Martin Dobson, a 4th Dan with international instructor, judge and examiner licences, supported by assistant instructors.
