Building confidence, developing new skills and having fun.
At Elite Force Banbury, we're more than just a karate club. We're a welcoming, inclusive community where children can build confidence, make friends and develop valuable life skills through martial arts.
Our Classes
Tiny Titans
Our Tiny Titans classes are specially designed for our youngest martial artists, aged 3–4 years, with a focus on learning through play.
Through a variety of fun games and engaging activities, children are introduced to the foundations of karate whilst developing their balance, coordination, confidence and both fine and gross motor skills.
Our sessions also encourage teamwork, listening and social interaction, helping children make new friends and develop important life skills in a fun, friendly and supportive environment.
Beginner Karate
Our Beginners Karate classes are designed for children aged 5 years and over, providing a fun, welcoming and supportive introduction to martial arts.
Through a mixture of structured activities, practical exercises and traditional karate techniques, students develop their coordination, confidence, discipline and physical fitness whilst learning valuable self-defence skills.
Our sessions also encourage respect, teamwork and perseverance, helping children build friendships, overcome challenges and progress at their own pace in a positive and inclusive environment.
Meet our Instructors
Richard Bassinder
Head Coach, 1st Dan Black Belt
I started Karate back in November 2006 as a very shy kid that was scared of his own shadow after being bullied in school. Karate helped me to grow into the person I am today, I wanted to start EFB to give others the chance to have fun, learn new skills and importantly help them change their own lives.
