Coach Syed is an amazing Karate instructor whose passion and dedication shine through in every class. He creates a fun and motivating environment where students are encouraged to do their best while learning discipline and respect for the art. He and his team are always kind and helpful—even with the little things, like helping my daughter tie her belt each time. Since we started with Coach Syed, my daughter doesn’t want to train anywhere else. He’s truly an inspiration! I can’t wait for my son to turn six and start training with him too.

I think it’s definitely a good opportunity for kids to learn self defence, discipline and get confidence to handle any unwarranted situations that may arise. Learning self defence is a life skill for everyone and I personally felt the positive change, enthusiasm and enjoyment in my child to get trained professionally by the experienced trainers at LBKI. Wish them great success in what they endeavoured to do.

As both a parent and the club manager at LBKI Karate, it’s been wonderful seeing my kids progress from white belts to black belts. It’s been amazing to see their confidence and leadership skills grow — and now they’re helping to teach others!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Everything You Need to Know

At what age can kids start karate?

Children can start karate at LBKI from as young as 4 years old through our Little Lions program, and from 6 years and above in our main Karate Classes. Starting young helps build discipline, coordination, and confidence from an early age.

Is karate safe for beginners?

Absolutely. LBKI Karate is designed to be safe for all beginners. Our certified instructors teach proper technique from day one, and all students are required to wear protective equipment once they begin sparring. Safety is our top priority in every class.

How many classes per week should I attend?

We recommend attending 2 classes per week for optimal progress. Our weekly schedule offers multiple sessions across different days and times to suit busy families and working adults. Even attending once a week will show meaningful improvement over time.

Do I need prior experience to join?

No prior experience is needed. LBKI welcomes complete beginners of all ages. 

What should my child wear to class?

Once enrolled, students are required to wear an approved LBKI karate gi (uniform). Uniforms are available for purchase through the dojo. 

How long before belt progression?

Belt gradings are held regularly throughout the year. Most students are ready for their first grading (Yellow Belt) within 3–6 months of consistent training. Progression depends on attendance, technique, and readiness as assessed by the instructor. There is no rush — quality of training matters more than speed of advancement.

What style of karate does LBKI teach?

LBKI teaches traditional Karate, a comprehensive style that combines striking techniques, kata (forms), kumite (sparring), and modern self-defence applications.
