JKA England opens November junior instructor course to eligible teen members
12 September 2026
JKA England is due to hold a Junior Instructor Course in Billericay on Sunday 8 November, offering an instructor-development opportunity for eligible teen members.
The organisation’s event page sets the eligibility at ages 13–17 inclusive and 3rd Kyu or above. The course is scheduled from 12.30pm to 3.30pm at Yushikai Karate Academy in Billericay, Essex, and the listed training cost is £15.
JKA England describes the course as an introduction to developing teaching skills and helping deliver karate classes. It is a JKA England member course, not a general qualification route for all UK karate associations; young people should check with their own instructor before booking.
The event page notes that places are limited and links to ticket booking. Families should confirm availability, eligibility and any updated arrangements directly with JKA England before making plans.
