World Class instruction with Sensei Dave Kershaw 8th Dan, former British Champion. All grades are transferrable, and no-one loses the grade they currently hold.

Konjaku Shin was founded in 1978 by Chief Instructor Dave Kershaw, who today holds the grade of 8th Dan black belt. Starting out in a wooden hut, and progressing to classes in leisure centres in Grimsby, Cleethorpes and Immingham, the school now has its own three storey premises in Lower Spring Street, Grimsby. A former bonded store, the building's top floor now features one of Europes finest dojo

For those who have visited from other clubs and have enjoyed the instruction of Sensei Dave Kershaw, please be aware he is available for courses worldwide, which includes our corner of the country!
For anyone looking for an affiliation, I cannot recommend Konjaku Shin International enough. To have a Chief instructor who is actively interested in your club members, who instructs not only technical ability, but brings out the very best in every student, no matter what ability/grade is a rare find.
We have the templates for your dojo risk assessments which can easily be adapted for your own dojo's.
Please contact Sensei Dave Kershaw 8th Dan Konjaku Shin International for more information.
