Worcester Shotokan Karate Club dojos are open.

Gichin Funakoshi the founder of Shotokan wrote 20 precepts.
#16 When you step beyond your own gate you face a million enemies.
We now face one million and one enemies.
Covid 19 is the new one and an invisible enemy we must still all be very respectful of.
A MAJOR benefit of karate training is the maintenance and improvement of one’s personal health and wellbeing, which can now be enjoyed again with the return to the dojo.
