Chelmsford Karate Club

Teaching the champions of the future

Chelmsford Karate Club's roots go back to the early days of the KUGB. Charles and Dot Naylor trained under Sensei Keinosuke Enoeda, one of the most influential figures in the development of Shotokan Karate and the KUGB in Britain. Charles had already established St Helens Karate Club before the family moved to Chelmsford in 1967. Soon after arriving, Charles and Dot founded Chelmsford Karate Club, beginning a legacy that continues nearly sixty years later.
