Karate is a Japanese martial art whose physical aspects seek the development of defensive and counterattacking body movements. The themes of traditional karate training are fighting and self-defence, though its mental and moral aspects target the overall improvement of the individual.

As part of The English Karate Federation, we hold our Karate Sessions for young people and children from 5yrs to 18 yrs old.
We hold several competitions and grading events throughout the year.
Since its launch in January 2003 Gipton Together has worked with children/young people aged 5yrs -18 yrs. from the communities of Gipton/Harehills and surrounding areas, areas scant of opportunities for young people.
Through arts and sports activities for young people our sessions act as a crime prevention and crime diversionary alternative.
Gipton Together addresses social exclusion providing community based activities, and a safe place for children/young people to go in the evenings - and alternative to 'hanging out' on the streets.
We encourage young people to participate, to acquire and develop their ‘transferable’ skills, to raise their aspirations, to help them improve their emotional and physical well-being, self-esteem and confidence; and with the support of the wider community, to challenge the barriers between generations.
Karate classes are offered by JD Dance. JD Dance is a community that builds confidence through affordable, high-quality dance classes for everybody.
