About The British Kempo Society
Dedicated to preserving and promoting the dynamic art of Kempo martial arts across the United Kingdom.
Our Rich History
The British Kempo Society was founded circa 2001 by a group of likeminded instructors who wanted to share their skills in a non-political playing field. From humble beginnings, our organization has blossomed into a vibrant, nationwide community of dedicated martial artists.
Our lead instructors come from backgrounds in multiple disciplines, bringing a wealth of knowledge and diverse perspectives to our teachings. We host regular instructor-level training as well as workshops designed for novice, intermediate, and advanced students.
We proudly maintain strong connections to the traditional roots of Kempo, while also embracing cutting-edge modern training methods and sports science. Our lineage traces back to the revered grandmasters of Kempo, and we honor their profound legacy through our unwavering commitment to excellence.
Today, we continue to expand our reach, offering comprehensive training programs suitable for all ages and skill levels across the UK, fostering growth and mastery in every student.
