Axe Valley Dojo

The Axe Valley Dojo exists to teach Seido Karate to the local community, where members receive high quality supportive teaching to develop people through the practice of traditional karate.

The physical training of traditional karate can be strenuous, emphasising progressive development of strength, flexibility and aerobic capacity. In addition to developing students with high levels of physical skill, our club aims to develop individuals of the highest moral character. In practice that means training hard and caring for the people around us.

The Axe Valley Dojo was started in May 2022 as the Colyton dojo, after I moved down from Buckinghamshire. The name change occurred when the dojo was officially recognised by the World Seido Karate Organisation in May 2024.
