Julia Turley Shihan

Chief instructor

Renshinkan Great Britain is led by Chief Instructor Julia Turley Shihan (nanadan, 7th degree black belt). She has dedicated her life to teaching traditional karate, which is enshrined by the ancient principles of Budo practice: compassion, courage, honour, humility, loyalty, sincerity and rectitude.

She has delivered 40+ years of teaching excellence after leaving her successful career in local  government to better champion the confidence and character of children in her community.

Julia Shihan runs classes for children, teenages and adults across the Mid Sussex region of the South of England. She established  the school in 1985.
