My 8 year old son has been a member of this club for a couple of years, he has really enjoyed it and has moved up belt grades quickly. Sensei Steve is fantastic, teaching excellent karate skills and discipline in a firm but fun environment. Definitely recommend this club to anyone looking to take up karate. Thanks again Sensei Steve and Paul. More...

My daughter and I both started karate at Sensei Steves Ellesmere Port class 18 months ago and we both look forward to his lessons each week. The classes are fun and friendly yet with the emphasis very much on learning and development. My daughters teacher said that he has noticed a vast improvement in her confidence and in her physical education. At present there are a good number of white belts and the club and everyone is made to feel very welcome More...

easy location to get to, good time for the class, (any later the children get too tired), also opportunity to go to a class on a different day if you have missed a class (ie due to holidays). Lots of encouragement from sensei for the children to achieve!! my children really enjoy this class, (which is high praise as they go to a lot of clubs) More...

I have been a student for 6 months now. I have a neurological disorder and sensei has helped me immensely with my strength and balance. At 34 I was nervous about joining the Dojo but I need not have worried. Sensei made me feel extremely welcome and spent time with me and now I am addicted. Thank you for everything sensei. More...

My daughter started at Shushinkai North West in Jan 2011, the facilities and quality of teaching are excellent, after only a few lessons we could see the increase in her overall confidence, and this has grown belt after belt. There are some fantastic learnings through the study of Karate and its etiquette that can be applied to all parts of life. She has made some great friends and there is a very welcoming community sprit, so much so just before my 40th birthday in Jan 2013 I started training. Highly Recommended!!!! More...

A superb, professional and family orientated training facility. My daughter started when she was 6 and a shy little girl. She is now 10, full of confidence and possesses a bespoke skill set . Sensei Steve's enthusiasm has passed onto her and she has a gained a determinism to succeed in everything she does which I'm convinced is due to this sport. More...

I have two daughter'a aged 7yrs and 8 yrs old, and they have been attending this club for just under a year, and can't get enough of it. When they first started going the where very shy and lacked confidence. Within the first couple of months, they had not only been learning self defence they where keeping fit and as a bonus they found new friends, their confidence had grown, they showed more self respect and discipline. And they have recently enter into a competition which they really enjoyed the experience Parents are also made to feel welcome and can wait in the waiting area in comfort, and can help themselves to a nice hot cuppa for a small charge. This also give you a chance to meet some of the other parents.I would highly reccomened everyone joined this DOJO. As it's very well established. It is run by sensei Steve Bolland, whom takes pride in his work and is very professional in all aspect of karate and the running of the Dojo.Everyone who is thinking about joining a dojo should at least try it out.

My daughter has been training with Shushinkai North West since 2007. During her time training under the guidance of Sensei Steve Bolland and his highly skilled team of instructors my daughter has grown in confidence, both physically and emotionally. Gaining many friends and her first black belt (Shodan) along the way! The bespoke Dojo is professionally run whilst still keeping it's friendly atmosphere. It is easily accessible and being open five nights a week with additional satellite clubs, allows you to fit training into your week a lot easier.I have no hesitation in recommending this club to families as I know everybody could gain a great deal from being a member.
