A Clear, Simple Subscription for Your Martial Arts Journey
At Camden Shorinji Kempo, you don’t “become a member.” You subscribe to training in a straightforward, flexible way to learn martial arts, progress through belts, and join our community. You are able to shape the club and by voting on our actions at our AGM.
Your subscription gives you full access to training, priority booking, exclusive content, and discounts on events and merchandise. Everything you need to earn your black belt.
We run around 90 in-person classes a year at the lovely Holborn House. We sometimes take a little break over the holidays. All our club instructors volunteer their time and occasionally when they are all away we have an array of amazing guest instructors from across London.
Since starting the club, we’ve: run full-day seminars (where we learned to use long staffs or shakajos), been featured onscreen at Piccadilly Circus, hosted a Halloween Special class (complete with Zombie outfits), visited clubs across Europe including Bristol, Messina (Sicily) and Lisbon (Portugal), run first aid classes and organised a gender-neutral tournament (taikai). This yeat we are headed to Japan.
A Camden membership also gives you exclusive access to our original literature, videos and the Kempo content that we produce. We also discount the price of our merchandise.
Our members are the reason that Camden Shorinji Kempo keeps going! Your membership fees pay for our exciting events, courses, club administrator and most importantly room hire.
