ESA National Championships



The ESA is a traditional Shotokan Karate association and as such, we do not focus on tournament style training. Although, we do hold an annual Championships.

The 2006 ESA Nationals are to be held at the Sutton Community Leisure Centre on the 1st October. We look forward to seeing you there!
