What is a Sensei?
When a student reaches black belt at Karma, they are encouraged to teach
aspects of the class. It is an excellent way for them to stay revised on
the more basic elements, and the chance for the coloured (kyu) belts to
learn from many different Sensei is a rare opportunity in martial art’s
dojos. It gives them the chance to see slightly different techniques and
know what is the core importance of each move. It is also good to see
how people of different height, weight and strength perform techniques
for maximum effect. This page contains some of the Sensei currently
teaching at Karma Ju-jitsu:
