The Washinkai Karate Mission Statement
Students After An Enjoyable Course With Washinkai Chief, Sensei Thompson
The mission of Washinkai Karate is to promote a partnership between students and instructors so as to provide students with the opportunity to achieve their full potential in the study of karate-do, whether in the dojo, on courses, on a gasshuku or in competition, as well as to promote the art of traditional karate generally.
Kihon - Basics
Practising With A Partner Can Be Rewarding
Many good karate-ka (student) quit at an early stage due to the repetitiveness of kihon, however, if you take onboard the attitude of the Japanese that a house can only be built on a solid foundation then kihon is extremely important.

Washinkai Karate (the Municipal Karate School of Javea) are now offering classes at both The Lady Elizabeth Primary and Senior School. The classes are open to people from outside the school as well as students and parents from LES
The Washinkai Child Protection Team
Washinkai has had an established Child Protection Team for many years. Born out of the belief that prevention is better than cure, Washinkai have implemented procedures to ensure that every child who trains within Washinkai is ensured a safe environment where they can enjoy and learn Karate.
Led by Head Child Protection Officer (CPO) Annette Turpin, the team consisting of Neville Smith and Luci Harris are always available to answer concerns and check that Instructors have the appropriate qualifications and clearances.
The History Of Washinkai
It was in late 1977 that Chris Thompson came to the conclusion that due to be being disillusioned and dissatisfied with the Wado-Ryu organisation in the UK that it would be best if he severed all connections with them.
This meant that Chris Thompson was one of the first breakaways and one of the first Englishmen to formulate his own style, training and grading syllabus.
