About Us

Ruach Karate Instructors have been training in Shotokan karate in the Midlands for nearly 40 years.
As the experts in Shotokan karate our students benefit from progressive training methods seeking to improve the individual performance to world-class standards. Local, national and international competitions see our students return home with medals time after time.
Competitions are nice to have and we celebrate our success but more than that, we seek perfection of character and instil life long learning and education as the main goal.

We don’t rest on our laurels however, World Class guest instructors are always a feature of our training program giving vibrancy and excitement to our training through out the year.
