Tamashii
Blackbelt School of Shotokan Karate has been
established for over 30 years, under chief instructor
Kelvin Raynor's supervision.
Originally called Seamless Tubes Karate Club, we trained
at Seamless Tubes working mens club in Wednesfield,
wolverhampton for over 10 years. After being forced to
move due to new roads being built we trained for a short
while at the local hospital's (New Cross) physio gym.
We were unfortunately forced to move from there aswell,
and then moved to New Invention social club, where we
trained for 2 years.
This was a great venue, but the training floor space
wasn't really big enough so Kelvin saw the opportunity
to move to a bigger venue. We relocated to Essington Rugby
Club, where we stayed for 4 years. Which is
where the club started to grow again.
We have now settled, after moving again to The Beacon
School in New Invention, Willenhall. This is an excellent
venue as we have three wooden floored rooms, to use
with high ceilings, toilets & changing areas.
