We will be open as usual the week between Christmas and New Years Day.

Our next 3 month session (Jan,Feb, March) began Monday January 2, 2023, so please register and pay for classes.
Our fee remains $300 for 3 months with unlimited access to classes. We now accept Venmo payments to Traditional Karate Club Wilmette.
Congratulations to the students who tested October 1st. We are proud of your accomplishments. Keep up your training – the requirements for each belt exam are listed on this website. Please let an instructor know if you plan to test in the future. There’s a $40 fee for taking the promotion exam, which includes the cost of a new belt, if needed.
The COVID-19 pandemic has created many challenges, and karate training is no exception. For the safety of all members, please stay home if you are ill or think you may have contracted a viral infection. We strongly recommend that all TKCW members receive COVID-19 vaccinations per CDC guidelines. We now leave the decision as to whether to wear a mask during class up to the individual.
Monday 5:30-6:30 pm
Tuesday 5:30-6:30 pm
Wednesday 5:30-6:30 pm
Saturday 10:00-11:00 am (all ranks)
Sunday 9:00-10:30 am (advanced kata, for brown and black belt levels)
We will have advanced kata done indoors each Sunday from 9:00-10:30 am. Open to brown and black belt ranks only. We train with our fellow karateka from the JKA Chicago dojo, and it’s always an invigorating work out.
The program starts with heian kata and then we pick more advanced Shotokan kata to learn and refine. Come, learn and enjoy!
