DARTMOUTH KARATE CLUB

Shotokan Karate started in Dartmouth in early 1974 as part of Torbay Karate Club at the Secondary Modern School in Victoria Road. The club flourished and as the membership increased, Dartmouth Shotokan Karate Club became a club in its own right, with Peter Atkins taking over the running of the club as chief instructor. When the new school was built in Milton Lane, the club moved there using both the Secondary Modern & Primary School sites. The club was invited to move to the Dartmouth Leisure Centre when it opened, and has been there since... Over the years, the Dartmouth Karate Club has managed to raise thousands of pounds for charity though the Karate Union of Great Britain (KUGB) annual charity appeal... We are a small & local Karate club practicing traditional Shotokan karate and catering for all levels of expertise, from beginner to experienced ‘karateka' and all ages from 7 upwards.
