# Tang Sou Dao UK - London Canary Wharf
Tang Sou Dao UK is a martial arts academy offering authentic Chinese martial arts training founded by Grandmaster MK Loke, who has over 50 years of teaching experience. Based on Shaolin traditions, the organisation has expanded from its Essex headquarters to multiple clubs across the UK and internationally.
The school serves a diverse clientele ranging from complete beginners seeking effective self-defence skills to returning martial arts practitioners and multi-generational families. Classes cater to various age groups and experience levels, with a particular emphasis on practical, real-world defensive applications rather than purely theoretical techniques.
What distinguishes Tang Sou Dao is its holistic approach to martial arts training. Beyond combat effectiveness, the curriculum integrates physical conditioning—building flexibility, strength and stamina—with mental development including discipline, concentration and confidence-building. The philosophy emphasises respect and personal growth applicable beyond the training environment.
The instructional team comprises experienced practitioners who have trained directly under Grandmaster Loke for many years, ensuring consistent, high-quality teaching throughout affiliated locations. This lineage-based approach maintains authenticity whilst adapting classical Shaolin techniques to contemporary self-defence contexts. The welcoming philosophy acknowledges that even advanced instructors began as nervous beginners, creating an accessible entry point for newcomers whilst providing depth for serious practitioners seeking technical excellence.
