Kushido UK

Kushido is a traditional martial art originating from Goju Karate-Do, Kobudo and Tai-Chi, and includes elements of Shotokan, Aikido and Kendo.  We are a not for profit organisation run by volunteers for the love of the art and have been based in the Camberley area for 21 years.  We run classes every week for Adults and Children who live in Camberley, Frimley, Bagshot, Deepcut, Bisley, West End, Farnborough, Fleet, Sandhurst, Woking and Guildford.

Kushido is not about competition, ego or the winning of trophies and medals – instead it is all about the progress of the individual.  Indeed, our "dojo kun" is:

-  Be humble, courteous & honourable

-  Eliminate all ego

Through regular training, Kushido helps you to feel more balanced in life, to be more self-confident and to achieve your goals.  It is particularly beneficial to children by helping them to become less aggressive, to concentrate better and for longer, to develop and improve their feeling of self-esteem and to respect themselves and others.

The practice of Kushido has no upper age limit and is equally good for both sexes.  The minimum age is 5 years old and every single person, prepared to invest time and effort, can improve on many different levels that will in turn help them to master the challenges of daily life more successfully.

Kushido started in 1963 and came to the UK in 1990 with the opening of our dojo in Camberley.  Today, Kushido UK is headed up by Sensei Michael Bruce (third dan with 20 years experience) and Sempai Jonathan Dolbear (first dan with 17 years experience). 

Our doors are always open to new members, so please feel free to come along anytime to watch a class and ask any questions that you may have.

Adults classes are held on Monday and Wednesday evenings, with the Children's class on Saturday mornings.  All of our classes are held at Deepcut Village Centre.
