Shikkari Karate Kai sessions which have run in the school since June 2015 on a Thursday night have been a great success for our young people from our school as well as children attending from other schools.
Brett has embraced the complexities of tutoring a group such as ours and has adapted the sessions for all abilities.

Over the weeks I have seen the children grow in confidence with their improving skills which has had a positive effect upon self esteem.

Villa Real after school Club

Children have improved in their coordination, listening, observation, physical and social skills. They have also learned names of moves and numbers in Japanese.

The After School and Holiday club were established by Villa Real School with the following objectives:

  • To provide extended opportunities for the children and young people who attend Villa Real School.
  • To provide opportunities for all children and young people to share and learn from each other, whether or not they have additional needs.

“The children are really enjoying their Karate sessions.  They are well run and are helping the children to stay focused and disciplined.  They have learnt a lot in a short space of time.  We were only going to run the club for a term but have extended it to the whole year.”

“The children who attend the Shikkari Karate Kai After school club can’t wait to start their sessions with Brett each week. The develop flexibility, skills and discipline throughout each session working towards accredited qualifications. I highly recommend Brett as he provides a professional, fun and structured approach to each session, with due regard to safe guarding taking place.”
