Shorinji Kempo is a true Martial Art in every sense of the word. The main goals are to develop a healthy body, cultivate a healthy mind and become proficient in self defence. Shorinji Kempo incorporates mental, physical & spiritual training. It combines hard techniques (strikes and blocks), soft techniques (locks, throws and pins), meditation, shiatsu (for healing, correcting and restraining) and a very concise and practical philosophy.

We regularly arrange social events, from going to the bar after training, to trips to Japan. All costs are minimal, and the classes are physically and intellectually challenging. You will meet friendly and enthusiastic people ready to answer any questions you have.
