White Tiger syllabus

Over 18s Only!
Due to the content and standard of our training it is only suitable for persons over the age of 18.
We suggest junior students join an external Junior club in Karate or Judo, then come to us as a senior once they reach 18.
Any MA experience you get before you turn up here will be beneficial, so go for it!

Class syllabus
Sessions will be based on the following arts and systems:
