Senseis Kevin and Andy have trained in Wado Ryu Karate for some years achieving their Dan grades in 2005. They have both been involved at Roffey with their children for some time and contribute a great deal to the atmosphere of enjoyable learning at the club
A normal class in the training hall ( DOJO) consists of warm ups, some stretching and basic techniques. Then there will be the option of KATA training (Kata is a series of moves in a predetermined sequence). All of the traditional katas are taught, some of which predate Wado Ryu by centuries, so the essence of training in a Martial Art can be appreciated.
