"STRENGTH IN UNITY"
The British All Styles Karate Association was founded in 1980. We are a multi styled association and have clubs throughout the country. Styles practised range from
Shotokan , Wado Ryu , Renshinkai , Goju Ryu and some Freestyle Karate.
Club instructors are respected and left to run their own dojo's without too much interference as long as the high standards of B.A.S.K.A are maintained.
The association is run by an executive commitee of senior instructors and the Chairman and Chief Instructor is Sensei Mike Dinsdale 8th Dan, he is a very well known and respected member of the karate world.
