Instructor

Sensei Mark Chambers Sensei Mark Chambers started Karate in 1982 at the tender age of 13, initially because he was being bullied at school, but he

soon caught “the bug” and has been passionate about Karate ever since.

Mark earned his Shodan (Black Belt) at the age of 17and decided to broaden his horizons by trying other Martial Arts. He tried

Aikido, Kung Fu, Jeet Kun Do, Kickboxing, Taikwondo, Lau Gar, Shotokan, Wado Ryu, Judo, Shaolin Kung Fu and Krav Maga.

Although Mark enjoyed these styles emmensley, his heart belonged to Karate, especially his original style of Kyokushin.

Mark has been teaching for other clubs for 21 years, including being Assistant Coach

for Greenwich Karate Squad in 2006 and his step-daughter was awarded “Spirit of the

Games” trophy by Greenwich Council.

In September 2007, Sensei Mark set up his own club under the guidance of the I.K.K.

(International Karate Kyokushin Association), which has helped him to do many exciting

things, such as Waterfall Training, Beach Traning, Displays and Summer Camp.

Mark is eager to encourage children and adults to get involved in Karate, whether is for

fun, excercise or self-defence. There are so many things to be gained from Karate,

including confidence, discipline, achievement and a sense of belonging.

We are a family ran club that are very proud of our multi cultural diversity and even

prouder of the unity and support spirit within the club.
