Testimonials

I cannot believe the difference in Niall in the two years he has been attending TKS. His confidence has improved to such an extent that he now tries new things readily - something he would never have done in the past! I love the ethos of the school and the way that the children are taught that they ARE the best and that what they do and think counts. It is also great to be part of TKS as a parent, as we all act like we belong to one big club as families.

Our two boys, aged seven and five, have been going to Thorpe Karate School for a year now and we are delighted with their progress. They are learning quickly and were proud of themselves when they passed gradings. More importantly, we see both boys growing in confidence and making new friends through their involvement. We appreciate the emphasis on anti-bullying and self-discipline, and we like the fact that the setup is less formal than other schools. Dave and Luke get the best out of our boys through a mix of expert tuition, humour and fun.

Since joining Thorpe Karate School in August 2007, my son has become more confident, disciplined, respectful and has a much higher self esteem. He loves his classes so much for which I must thank the whole team for making them so enjoyable and helping him "Achieve Black Belt Excellence" which is his ultimate goal.

My son has been at Thorpe Karate for three years now and loves every minute. As well as learning a new sport, he has made new friends and has developed as a person helped by the way Sensei & Luke teach all the students to be self disciplined, focused, confident, believe in themselves and to show respect. The students are also taught to be assertive and confident without being pushy and over bearing. All these skills can be used outside in every day lives. The TKS approach to teaching self defence is also well received by the children and parents. I know my son is extremely proud of his grading achievements so far, as is the family, and he is also delighted at being able to help at recent gradings which he wrote about at school. Sensei & Luke have definately brought the best out in my son.
