This site is about the Kensho Dojo Karate club , and the views I have about martial arts. Kensho Dojo is a martial arts club in the Reading , Thames Valley area, affiliated to the English Traditional Karate Federation (ETKF), and teaches Shotokan Karate with a blend of inspiration from Karate Jutsu, Tai Chi and Aikido. Kensho Dojo is a club whose aim is to impart the spirit of martial arts to dedicated students. The club curriculum is set by the ETKF, but the contents of this site are based on the views I developed on martial arts as a result of training with various teachers in different styles.
