Active Life Centre Karate Club

Martial Arts Club in Basingstoke, Hampshire
Martial Arts Club in Basingstoke, Hampshire At our Basingstoke Martial Arts Academy, unlike some franchises and chains of martial arts schools, we do not use someone else's great reputation to sell our classes, nor do we use instructors who have only been training a short while, in some cases mere months. You'll find that we currently have a perfect reputation for teaching quality Martial Arts built up over nearly 28 years of training, competing and coaching at very senior levels. What this means, is that the students who train with us benefit from this in-depth experience and earn a greater insight into their own practice of the Martial Arts.

Active Life Centre Karate Club
read moreAt our Academy, in our children Martial Arts classes, kids not only learn self-defence and Martial Arts skills, they learn much more from us. Self confidence, focus, determination, self reliance and can-do attitude which gives imbues a feeling of self discipline and control. This is combined with an approach for a life-long healthy lifestyle. Above all, age specific Martial Arts classes are different, they're fun, exciting and as a life skill are invaluable. Learning at a pace that is optimised for the child, the learning experience is outstanding.
What Does Shin Gi Tai Mean
read moreShin represents mind, heart and good spirit - When we train we should always be aware of what we are doing and need to consider our approach to the techniques we learn. Perhaps more importantly learn and practise well the strategies in our own mind to prevent us ever having to use our martial arts skills outside of the training hall. Shin can also mean spirit and this is the 'fighting' spirit that we show, we never give up and always try our hardest. Gi represents skill, knowledge and experience - We must work hard and strive to perfect our techniques in order to be able to perform them effectively.
