MEET CASEY.

HI IM CASEY, I HAVE TRAINED WITH KAZOKU SINCE THE SPRING OF 2020.

MY JOURNEY STARTED TRAINING ONLINE DURING THE LOCKDOWN, OVER THE YEARS I HAVE GROWN IN CONFIDENCE, STRENGTH AND KNOWLEDGE.

I LOVE BEING PART OF THE KAZOKU FAMILY AND HELPING STUDENTS GROW AND PROGRESS  ON THEIR INDIVIDUAL PATHS.  

FUN FACT - I AM DYSLEXIC AND WHEN HELPING, I COME UP WITH FUNNY NAMES OR SAYINGS TO HELP ME REMEMBER WHAT TO DO.

MEET george.

Hi, my name is George Baptiste and a member of the Kazoku family.

I am the children’s playground officer at Reading Borough Council and an accredited inspector assessing the safety levels of children’s play equipment.

I’ve been participating in martial arts for about 15 years now after being introduced by my eldest son at a previous club. Over those years as a student then an assistant then and instructor and then overseeing my own dojo.

After obtaining my Shodan (1st Dan) I wanted a new challenge, a challenge to test me and what I’ve learnt for all those years. Kazoku-Ka gave me that opportunity and for the past five years, I have learnt, enjoyed, and understood the joys of Karate which has truly opened my mind.
