I decided to enrol my son into karate to help boost his confidence and self esteem.

The Kobe Osaka, which I had the privilege of training with, has a unique range of qualities not found elsewhere. There are some things which you can’t explain, and have to experience.

Over the eight years that I have trained at kobe Osaka (before even we had the dojo) I feel that I have constantly been learning new things, whether it was something about a specific technique or even a new technique altogether. This applies to both karate and the weapons class which I regularly attend. Overall… Read more “Always learning something…”

Kobe Osaka is one of the best karate clubs in Scotland. The instructors are both professional and friendly and they are always happy to help. Not only do they teach Karate, they also teach Ju Jitsu as well as weapons.
