About Konjaku Shin National School Of Karate
World Class Traditional Shotokan Karate-Do instruction at the Region's Premier Karate School with Chief Instructor Dave Kershaw 8th Dan.
Konjaku Shin National School Of Karate Description
Konjaku Shin was founded in 1978 by Chief Instructor Dave Kershaw, who today holds the grade of 8th Dan black belt.
Starting out in a wooden hut, and progressing to classes in leisure centres in Grimsby, Cleethorpes and Immingham, the school now has its own three storey premises in Lower Spring Street, Grimsby. A former bonded store, the building's top floor now features one of Europes finest dojos, with a studio, lounge, kitchen and changing facilities on the ground floor, and fully equipped gym in the basement.
Classes are held six days a week, with dedicated childrens classes from the age of four, and seperate adults classes.
Konjaku Shin teaches traditional Shotokan Karate-Do, with emphasis on self-development, particularly in self-confidence, self-awareness, and of course self-defence. Students progress at their own rate, with well structured and systematic classes.
Konjaku Shin has had remarkable success in tournaments over the years, producing many British champions. Chief Instructor Dave Kershaw was himself SKI(GB) Champion for a record six consecutive years between 1987 and 1992.
Konjaku Shin holds free taster sessions every Sunday and Wednesday, and new members are always welcome.
All grades are transferrable, and no-one loses the grade they currently hold.
Dan (black belt) and Kyu (coloured belt) gradings are held every three months and are conducted by Dave Kershaw as Chief Instructor and Examiner.
In 2001, Dave Kershaw was invited to teach in India. Since then, he has overseen the development of karate there, and Konjaku Shin (India) is now well established and continues to grow.

The best thing I've ever done for myself. All the instructors are friendly and very experienced. from day one I've felt very welcomed by everybody. Perfect for anybody wanting to learn martial arts.
I've had the privilege of training with sensei kershaw since 16 and now I'm 44 I've seen other instructors and he is by far the best so I will continue to train with him for as long as I am capable TOP INSTRUCTOR WITH TOP CLASS CLUB OSS!
I was welcomed to Konjaku Shin by Sensei and all of its karate family in 2012. I had attained my shodan in 1992 in another club which had since closed. I moved around the globe with work, training briefly in many dojos in the North of England, and even training in Uganda and Sydney. After a few years break i came to Konjaku Shin and will certainly never leave. This is the best instructor and dojo i have ever had the pleasure of training in. Everyone is welcomed and encouraged to be the best they can be. I cannot recommended it highly enough. Thank you to Sensei for his continued teaching and wisdom of traditional shotokan karate. Oss!
I trained at the school whilst holidaying in the UK from Australia. Found it to have a wonderful family like atmosphere and lovely people who clearly go out of their way to accommodate and welcome visitors from all over the world. Highly recommended!
