Exeter University Shotokan Karate Club
One of the most popular and well-known martial arts, karate is a system of self-defence originating from Japan combining kihon (basics), kata (forms) and kumite (sparring).
Our sessions are led by the highest ranked KUGB Dan grade in the South West, Sensei Trevor Jarett (6th Dan). With his guidance and instruction, members can advance through the ranks with termly gradings and train towards national competitions, in which the club has already enjoyed much success.
Karate classes at the University have plenty to offer for complete beginners, as well as experienced students.
