About the Business

The objective of the Dôkan Gudo Nishijima Karate Club (or Dôkan for short) is to promote, support and encourage the practice of Shotokan Karate. To help our students develop an understanding of the techniques and spirit of Shotokan Karate and a mutual respect and friendship for all of our members.

The club was established in 1983 by Sensei D. Kurby and Sensei D. Jenkinson and has grown to become an Association in direct membership of the English Karate Federation. Our Chief Instructor is Sensei Kevan Mitchinson (4th Dan) who devotes almost every waking minute to teaching and promoting both his club and his art. We provide tuition six days a week for both beginner and advanced students and regularly compete in both regional and national competitions with some success.
