Adult Group Classes
Our Adults Classes are designed for men and women interested in developing their mind and body through martial arts. We work on improving your cardiovascular system, and our specifically tailored Combat HIIT exercises will help your body become more firm, toned and flexible. You’ll gain confidence and learn new skills such as self-defence that will have a positive impact on your everyday life. You’ll feel good about yourself physically and mentally, and your ability to meet life’s daily challenges will improve.
Martial arts will work your body in totally new ways. You’ll build muscles you never even knew you had.
To fit the needs of our adult students, we offer optional participation in the competitive arena (tournaments), and training towards the achievement of a black belt. Students train according to their own abilities in a positive and encouraging environment, allowing them to develop at their own pace. Our instructors are with you every step of the way as they demonstrate techniques that will help you reach your full potential

Frequently Asked Questions
We strongly recommend that you always consult with a doctor before you resume classes.
Then, make your Sensei aware of any injury/condition you may have. Work with your body, and don’t overdo anything. In some exercises, alternatives can be given to avoid stressing existing injuries. Often, we have injured students coming to watch dojo classes in order to keep their karate spirit alive during recovery.
EMAR Dojo is a great place for women to learn self-defence. We have roughly equal numbers of male and female students, so you won’t feel out of place. On top of that, you may find that you’ve become fitter and more toned after a few weeks training, as karate involves cardio workouts, strength training, and stretching. Karate has all the benefits of working out at the gym, with the added advantage of practical learning. Our women love our Karate classes, and all feel empowered after learning real combat skills.
Absolutely. Our dojo is always open to everyone regardless of your experience, style or association. Remember, new students can join us at any time of the year. Whether you’re a beginner or advanced – coming from another club or style – we welcome you and will do our very best to accommodate you. As long as you’re respectful towards everyone, and do your best at every session, we are happy to have you at our dojo.
We believe in the unification of Karate, and that the spirit of training is paramount. We regularly have the pleasure of receiving guest instructors and athletes from other associations and styles, who actively participate in our classes, and we are grateful for their contribution.
At first, you won’t be performing free sparring. Karate has a sequence to its learning syllabus that has been developed to ensure students are both challenged and kept safe. To this end, we first teach techniques that are arranged into short sequences. This allows you to practise defences and attacks with a partner without the risks involved in free fighting. These sequences grow in complexity as you develop; later there will be chances to practise free sparring.
As fit as you are now! One idea of karate training is that whatever level you’re at, you’ll be pushed to go a little bit further than before, which is how your fitness improves. If you aren’t taking any regular physical exercise right now it’s a fantastic idea to start karate lessons as soon as possible. . You’ll find it exhilarating at first and that’s quite normal – most people have a few cobwebs in their system they need to shake off.
You know your level of endurance, and whether you’re exceeding it. The only person who loses out if you don’t try is you. We recommend being willing to give it a try. If you find the exertion too intense at first it’s quite alright to either slow down, or take a few minutes break.
