Age Groups
Juniors start from age 5 onwards and seniors from age 16 onwards.

Children
The Southern England Wadokai Academy specialises in teaching children from the age of 5 years onwards in a completely safe and controlled environment.

All junior students progress through a grading system, using merit badges, every four weeks, so that all achievements are logged and recorded for parents and guardians to view. Belt gradings take place every 10-15 weeks approximately.

Special Needs
The Southern England Wadokai Academy also specialises in teaching children with learning and behavioural problems such as autism and A.D.H.D.

Lesson Format
Beginner's classes are all run at a speed allowing everyone to progress at their own pace. All classes are explained to students in detail.

Most karate lessons follow a similar format with students learning all aspects of fitness, blocking, punching and kicking techniques from basic stances. Classes are then broken down to work on more specific areas such as defence and attack techniques with a partner, correct posture and body movement, and how to use the body to the best possible advantage.

Students are encouraged to ask their instructor about anything they are not sure of and to constantly evaluate their progress.
