Reviews of Great Ayton Karate Club

My son has been at the club for 6 years now, he always looks forward to training and has grown in confidence under Alistair's guidance, his focus and commitment is a great reflection of how the club make karate fun and interesting. The in-house competitions encourage students to push themselves and also show them how far they have come. I wouldn't have my son go anywhere else to train.

My ten year old daughter counts down the days until she's can go to karate again! She loves it. Alistair is an incredibly kind, patient teacher who totally understands that each child needs a slightly different approach to get the best out of them. Every single child leaves the room feeling like they were the only person that mattered in that session. And it's not just about confidence - my daughter has also made incredible progress, grading four times in two years. She recently competed in the Tyne Tees Open for the third time and won a bronze medal - not bad considering her lack of experience! The club also makes a real effort to go beyond just classes, with in house competitions, social events and reward events. Outstanding - can't recommend it highly enough!
