On Thursday 17^th February 2011, members of Kaizen Ryu Karate Do joined other young athletes from East London at the 10^th Annual Sports Personality of the Year Awards, sponsored by Canary Wharf Group. The prestigious event was held at East Wintergarden in Canary Wharf, and the awards were presented by Perri Shakes-Drayton; former winner and current Olympic hopeful in athletics.

We were privileged to have been asked to put on a display as part of the evening’s celebration. Excitement, nerves all played a part, and after only four hours worth of rehearsals both squads, ‘Yudansha’ and ‘Team Kaizen’ had massive fun as they took to the stage and showcased a display that was met with a rapturous applause!

Team Kaizen is an 8 session course open to any student training within Kaizen Ryu Karate.

We will be training for a national competition; where you’ll be able to test your skills against other martial artists from around the UK.

Our coaching team have already achieved tremendous success with our current National Squad. Our “Yudansha” (National Squad) train regularly throughout the year just for competition and have put their skills to good use at tournaments around the World; including at the highest level of karate competition in Japan.

You will be learning directly from members of the Yudansha team, who will be sharing the techniques and strategies that have served them well over the years.

The Kaizen Ryu National Squad was formed in October 2006. It's squad members train regularly on top of their regular training schedule and have come on a long way since then.

They have competed at Club, National and International Level. From Crystal Palace, to Kent, Essex, Aylesbury, Manchester, Germany and even to Japan.

Their efforts and passion for the sport in and out of the competition arena has recently been getting noticed by top people and getting results at top level. Incredible achievements from young people who are rapidly becoming positive role models in their communities.
