  1. Hey guys thank you all so much for your messages, I have managed to find a club In kings cross where a friend trains so I am going to give them a try sound like what I'm looking for, he speaks highly of it and was once a member of my old dojo in its current state. @Gazrichards, I won't say who exactly my old Dojo were but It wasn't training with you don't worry Thanks for the offers of training however
  2. Hello Everyone I'm looking for a Good Traditional Shotokan Karate Dojo, I live in Milton Keynes and am happy to travel a little, would consider training in London also. A little Background, I trained shotokan Karate from age 10-19 gaining Shodan when I was 18. I am now 31 so am very out of shape forgot half of half my kata and lost all flexibility. Still have muscle memory for most basics though its amazing what your body remembers even though it was 13 years ago!! You may ask why I don't train at my old Dojo, I did revisit and well alas it is what I think you call a McDojo now, too many 14 year old black belts (I was held at 1st kyu untill I was 18) kids backchatting the sensei, like 3 adults all whom were blackbelts with terrible terrible technique. It nearly did bring a tear to my eye seeing my old club this way, I used to remember the dojo packed full of 40-50 adults weekly, people failing gradings, it no longer even looks like the same club. Anyway I could go on but it is what it is. So I really would love to find a club with adult lessons, pref full of adults too!! who havn't sold out to parents spending 200-300£ a year on gradings. and turning a dojo into a glorified creche. Thanks in advance and nice to meet you
