PE4, Peterborough
We are a non-profit Karate Club, which means any money we make goes straight back into the Club. We teach because we believe it is a sacred responsibility to pass on the lessons of the Senseis before us.
We teach and train in traditional Shukokai Karate, also known as Tani-ha Shitoryu.

What do you love most about your job?
Seeing students grow and the impact that martial arts has on the lives of our students. Especially when those students wouldn't have been able to have that experience without our Lottery funding.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I've been teaching for a few years now, initially I wanted to create a class that was perfect for my son. Before I knew it I was teaching all ages, competitors, and people from a wide variety of backgrounds.
Why should our clients choose you?
We are all volunteers, and this club is a "home from home" for many of our students. We're completely inclusive and encourage everybody to progress at their own time. Our board is 50% female and we pride ourselves on being a safe and inclusive place for everybody to train, especially those who are usually underrepresented in martial arts. Whether training casually, looking to improve on your character, get fitter, improve your mental health, learn a new skill, or compete we have a team fully able to cater for everybody.
