BWCSK Club Notice on the Covid-19 (Coronavirus) Pandemic

  • 18th March 2020
  • by Administrator

BWCSK are constantly reviewing the situation and latest government guidelines and will keep you informed of the how the club will proceed going forward. We recommend that you check our facebook page (https://en-gb.facebook.com/BirminghamShotokan/) for the most up-to-date information as this will be updated as a priority as the situation evolves, our facebook news feed is also visible on the bottom of all posts on this site.

Karate training is currently on as normal with hygiene protocols in place. There will be no sparring or bag work during this time. Internal doors will be kept open so that contact with surfaces can be minimised and cleaning is in place.  If you or any member of your family are exhibiting symptoms as per government advice please stay away to help ensure the good health of your fellow students, their families and your instructors.


Please make sure your Gi Is washed after each session, may I also point out your white mitts are also washable but they will not be needed as there will be no contact kumite. There will be someone in place to make sure children wash their hands before training.

Whilst we appreciate that some of you may prefer not to participate at this time and fully understand and support that decision we would be grateful if you could inform Sensei Hession so that she can organise classes accordingly.   


Stay safe and be mindful, keep practising even if not attending classes and we look forward to seeing you all again in the future.

The BWCSK team.
