Somerset Ryū Karate turns ten years old next month, and to celebrate the occasion we're delighted to be holding our first ever Gasshuku training weekend from Saturday 14th to Sunday 15th October! Two days, two guest instructors, fantastic classes, plus opportunities to socialise with like minded karateka.

​

Covering Kihon and Kata on day one, we have former 2x SKI GB Grand Champion and Chief Instructor of the hugely successful Walsall Karate Dojo, Steve Carless Sensei, 6th Dan JKS!

 

Then, on a Kumite focused day two, one of the most prolific fighters in JKS England and Lithuania’s number 1 ranked WKF kumite competitor, Remigijus Jurgilaitis Sensei, 3rd Dan JKS!

 

The Gasshuku will be open to all SRK students, friends, past members, plus anyone else that would like to join us (subject to space), irrespective of style, association or affiliation.
