Somerset Karate now has its own website. The address is www.SomersetKarate.co.uk. It has been constructed, designed and maintained by Sempai Parkes.

Your next grading starts here!

Don’t forget to have a good look at your Grading form. It’s called your Grading MOT Form. Make sure you read the Grading Examiners’ comments, they will help you improve. If you don’t understand something please feel free to ask a Sempai.

Don’t forget that your next grading has started already, because your attendance at each lesson is recorded and so is the amount of effort you put into EVERY lesson.
