Great training. Great company. Great memories!
Since 2004, our annual Weekend Training Camp has been one of the highlights of the E.S.K.K calendar.
More than just a weekend of training, it’s an opportunity to improve, relax, spend time with like-minded people and return home feeling refreshed, motivated and inspired.
From Friday 4th to Sunday 6th June 2027, we’ll once again be returning to the wonderful 4-star Crown Hotel in Wetheral for another unforgettable weekend.
What to expect…
✅ Seminar-quality instruction covering karate, self-defence, movement, health and fitness, equipment training, plus more!
✅ In-depth learning and topics that are simply not possible during regular classes.
✅ Full use of the hotel’s leisure facilities, including the swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna, steam room and gym.
✅ Comfortable accommodation with award-winning food and excellent hospitality.
✅ Plenty of time to relax, socialise and enjoy the company of fellow members and instructors.
Do I need to be a certain rank to attend?
Not at all. The event is open to all E.S.K.K members aged 18 and over. It is designed for our whole dojo community, not just advanced grades or experienced practitioners. Every session is taught in a supportive, inclusive way, with guidance and options to help everyone train at an appropriate level. The aim is to learn, challenge yourself, enjoy the camaraderie and make the most of the weekend.
Our training camps have a unique atmosphere that keeps members coming back year after year, combining high-quality instruction with great company, surroundings, laughter and lasting friendships.
What previous attendees say…
“This year was my very first training camp, and as an orange belt, I was not quite sure what to expect. I can safely say it was great fun, highly informative, and I felt so happy throughout the whole weekend. I have already booked for next year and would highly recommend it to anyone considering coming along!”
“This will be my fifth year booked. I attended my first Training Camp as a white belt and have never looked back. It is positively challenging, coupled with great food and fabulous company. It is a real tonic!”
“If you are nervous about taking the plunge, do not be. As a complete first-timer, I felt welcomed and supported from the very start. You will learn an immense amount, and the warm camaraderie was a real highlight too.”
