Adult Classes

Here at SCKS we cater for all age groups and abilities. We truly believe it is never too late to start learning karate! Sensei Simon Coope, founder of Simon Coope Karate School, started as an adult when his son began training. He loved it so much he set up his own club and became a full time instructor in 2004! 

All of our classes are mixed age and ability as we find this to be the most effective dynamic for teaching as well as learning. Whilst we have a lot of children in our classes, we have quite a number of adults who participate too (and not just parents)! 

Karate is a great all over body workout, offering fitness and strength-building with an ere of competitiveness, whilst still being lots of fun and improving self-defense skills! It truly is a remarkable sport to take up. And, if you’re not sold already, every student gets one whole month of free lessons to see if it’s really for you! 

Started karate with Sensei Simon at the age of 42 with my son, and I really enjoy it. Great for your all round fitness (no more bad backs), learning new skills and having fun. You are never too old to take up a new sport, and it's brilliant to be able to do something with your kids instead of just watching them.

This is genuinely one of the best martial arts clubs in Leicestershire. The tuition is fantastic, covering both traditional and competition karate in detail. It is suitable for all ages as the content keeps all ages and belt levels engaged. Simon cares for his students and makes everyone feel welcome, regardless of whether it's their first time or they've been training with him for years. I 100% recommend this school.
