Shotokan Karate for children age 3 to adult
SJK Shotokan Karate was established in Enfield in 1978 by martial arts husband and wife team, David and Lilian Alleyn (Unfortunately Shihan David 7th Dan passed away in 2019 & Sensei Lilian 4th Dan passed away in 2013). They both taught the martial art of Shotokan karate and self defence all over England and the UK for well over 30 years and were both professional Martial Arts teachers. Many martial arts clubs in UK and abroad are now run by their old students.
David, Lilian their son Brian and daughter Christine graded and studied Shotokan Karate and Self Defence under the top Shotokan Japanese Martial Arts Masters: Kanazawa Sensei,(Probably the best karate master R.I.P.) Asano Sensei, Enoeda Sensei, Kato Sensei, Kawasoe Sensei, Kase Sensei, Ohta Sensei and K. Funakoshi, Sensei..
There is training for Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced students at BPSJK run by their daughter Sensei Christine.

Sports Psychology from Newcastle College. Shihan David also held a Black belt in Ju Jitsu ,Lilian was a 4th Dan Shotokan Karate Sensei (Teacher) but both have now sadly passed away).
Shihan Christine 6th Dan has combined SJK Karate and Black Panther Karate to make BPSJK. She is the Chief Instructor. She teaches in the style of her parents and still upholds the values of Traditional Shotokan Karate.
Sensei Christine daughter of David & Lilian started karate with her parents at the age of 9 yrs. Christine also graded and studied Shotokan Karate and Self Defence under the top Shotokan Japanese Martial Arts Masters: Kanazawa Sensei, (Probably the best karate master alive today) Asano Sensei, Enoeda Sensei, Kato Sensei, Kawasoe Sensei, Kase Sensei, Ohta Sensei and K.
