Hello, I run a small karate class, and looking around to try and find some more tournament circuits to enter my students in. we are based in Essex so ideally looking for something within a 3 hour driving radius.
does anyone know of any?
thanks in advance

| I'm across the pond in the US, so I'm not going to be much help, however I'm sure you'll be asked if you're looking for full-contact/knockdown tourneys or point fighting. Kata, kumite or both? Although all tourneys I know of do both. |

Thanks for your reply,
Not looking for full contact, touch or semi contact is fine. point fighting, kata

Sorry for such a slow response Ashworth.
But I'd recommend you get into contact with the British Karate Federation to find out about tournaments. Which would run Karate Only Tournaments.
I believe ISKA/NASKA operate in England, which operate as an All-Style Tournament that welcomes any Martial Art into the mix. |
