Testimonials

After years of starting and quitting exercise classes, I joined Kerry Shotokan Karate School, as a way to get fit. Contrary to exercise classes, Kerry Shotokan has taught me a skill and given me goals to work towards. This has kept me interested and going for over two years now with no intention of stopping.

Since I was a Child I always loved Karate, in fact, one of my favourite movies is the Karate kid, but my parents couldn’t afford it at that time. When I moved to Ireland/Killarney I met Sensei Charles Neri who invited me to his class. Finally, my childhood dream came true when I joined Kerry Shotokan Karate School. Karate is an amazing sport full of discipline and self defense. I feel relaxed when I am in the Dojo, far from my problems. I’m excited at the opportunity to learn, and grow through Kerry Shotokan with hopes of becoming a Black Belt, and perhaps a Sensei too… and I can’t wait for the lockdown to end so that my girlfriend can join too! Want to experience Cobra Kai and submerge yourself into Karate? Join Kerry Shotokan Karate School, you will never be the same.

My 8 year old son has been part of the Kerry Shotokan Karate School for over 2 years. Sensei Charles not only teaches the classes but he also teaches valuable life skills such as courtesy, respect and discipline. Both Sensei Charles and Agatha welcome and encourage all members in the Kerry Shotokan Karate family. My 5 year old daughter watched her brother train for years and now she has joined and she really loves it!!

Kerry Shotokan Karate School is a warm and friendly club for kids and adults alike. Sensei Charles is a talented and dedicated teacher who goes above and beyond at every class. Throughout lockdown, we have kept classes going online, and I look forward to pushing myself in every class. Can't wait to get back to the dojo, but karate has become part of my life, and Kerry Shotokan have played a big part in that. Would recommend to anyone, young or old.
