Per 1 September Jokokan Dragør Karate School opens its doors to new members.

Jokokan Dragør Karate School is a future part of the martial arts organization Shindenkan Danmark, which to date has 9 schools distributed throughout Zealand.

In Jokokan Dragør, you will receive instruction in a karate system that has its roots in the ancient samurai culture. And you will be able to do it in a club where there is room for everyone – elite as an exerciser.

Who can train karate in Jokokan Dragør?

Anyone over the age of 8 can do it. Karate is not reserved for big and strong men with very little hair on their heads. In Jokokan Dragør, karate is for everyone who wants to practice martial arts, either as exercise or as a way of life. The established schools that are part of Shindenkan Denmark have for many years had great success with parents training together with their children.

Can you do that?

Yes, that's no problem. In Jokokan Dragør, you as a parent will be able to train with your child, or children if you have more. And without having to look for them all the time. In fact, you have the opportunity to spend quality time with your child, while also getting good and effective exercise. And to complete the "Kinder egg", you also get the opportunity to learn how to take care of yourself and your child in a constructive and educational way.

If as a child or teenager you didn't really think that the world was easy or that the more traditional sports were a bit boring, fear not. In Jokokan Dragør, you will get an insight into a world where charm, self-confidence and beautiful hair are not something we just talk about - but also something we do something about.

In Jokokan Dragør, we enable students to distinguish between illusion and reality.

Or put another way. We will teach students to think for themselves and take responsibility for their own lives.

Now it might sound too good to be true and we must also disappoint the part of the citizens of Dragør who would like to win nice trophies and great prizes, since we do not participate in any kind of tournaments. We train with a view and focus on personal/human development, as well as teaching students to take responsibility for themselves and, in the long term, also others. And we do it with a big smile and good humor.

Jokokan Dragør will work in close collaboration with Jokokan Amager as both schools have the same instructor team. A team of instructors who have more than 30 years of experience in martial arts and who have participated in more than 60 training camps with the Shindenkan organization's Supreme Grandmaster Yamana-Itotani Sensei.

If you now want to know more or just want to start training, you can find more information about the training, times and places on the website here or send an email to shindenkan@mail.dk.
