Realistic self‑protection, applied Kata and close‑quarter skills taught by Sensei Lee Mullan (5th Dan, BCKA). Keiryu Practical karate offers a fun, friendly and safe environment to learn karate. At Keiryu Practical Karate we deliver a karate system with realism and modern training principles. Leading to an exciting comprehensive karate programme offering something for everyone. Teens and adults karate classes are a progression and distinct from the children’s classes, as karate techniques are applied, with more partner, impact and ground work. Each class is varied and contains aspects from our syllabus and curriculum. Week by week we aim to build confidence in a structured, friendly but challenging and fun environment. The aim of our syllabus is to produce individuals with knowledge of practical application of karate. We recognise that we are not all the same and seek individuality. We cover hand, arm, foot and leg striking techniques, impact work, grappling, ground work, throws, takedowns, locks and self protection skills. If you are looking for a new challenge whilst improving fitness, then give it a go! Keep fit, improve confidence, whilst learning both mental and physical aspects of self defence.

Lee has an excellent pedigree in traditional karate and understands its application in the modern world. He is one of a small number of people to be qualified as an Introductory Instructor in my approach to kata application / practical karate and I recommend him and his group to anyone wanting quality karate with a genuine relevance to modern self-protection." - Iain Abernethy, 7th Dan
