My name is Linden Huckle and I am the founder of ShotokanKarateOnline.com, I have been practicing karate over fifty years and teaching for over 30 years. I am now 7th Dan. Our community is extremely lucky as for the last 4 years, we have had the HDKI world kata champion, Sensei Stuart Amos 5th Dan helping on the website and teaching on our live zoom classes.
Shotokan Karate Online was created as a resource for Shotokan Karateka all over the world.
We are not interested in the political side of karate and everyone is welcome on our website, irrespective of grade, association and whether or not someone practices karate at a Dojo, or in their own home!
We have tutorials in everything Shotokan, from Kihon (basics), to Kumite (sparring), Kata (form), lesson plans, history, philosophy, health, fitness and much more.
We also hold several live zoom classes each week, which we also record, edit and upload into the members area.
If you are an existing karateka and practice at a Dojo, we can help. We are continually adding video tutorials. These tutorials sometimes focus on a specific area of Shotokan and sometimes they are full kata tutorials, or full lessons.
If you are new to karate, we can help. We have a special introductory course for new members that is a great entry point into the fascinating world of shotokan karate.
For people just starting their karate journey, our video tutorials are highly detailed, but easy to follow and will take you step by step, from white belt to the coveted black belt.
Our Shotokan Karate follow along classes are very popular. We have 15minute, 20 minute, 30 minute, etc.
We understand how busy people are, so when we put together these follow along classes, we cram as much technical information as possible, in the shortest time frame possible.
Our main membership is our Monthly membership, which gives our members full access to all of our tutorials, our kata dojo, follow along class recordings, newly added weekly content and of course our Shotokan app (does not include the 6 week shotokan karate mastery program).
We also have our Inner Circle Membership, this is especially designed for karateka who wish to fast track their progress in karate and some of our Inner Circle members would like to open their own Shotokan karate school.
Our Inner Circle membership has a private Facebook group, it includes access to all of our live zoom karate classes, an instructor training program, a Dojo marketing program, all rank testing is included and we provide individual video feedback on every test and much more.
We have a Shotokan Karate App called ‘Shotokan Bites’. The app has a free area.
Outside of our Inner Circle we also have a Facebook page and two private Facebook groups, details at the bottom of this page.
As our community grows, we are also planning a residential karate course in the English Lake District.
This 3 day course will be a chance to practice karate together and somewhere our shotokan community can meet each other, socialise and have a great time.
