Based in Burnfoot, Co. Donegal, Aileach Karate Club has long been a strong member of the Ulster Karate-Do Federation with a large number of senior and junior members. Practising in the Wado Ryu style, we strive to get the best out of our students in all areas of personal development ranging from competition, kumite and kata through to advancement through grades/belts. The club was founded and is still currently run by Sensei Denis Donaghey 4th Dan.

As a member of the UKF, we host many regular training sessions, competitions and seminars. Recent events included a seminar with Sensei Ian Cuthbert 6th Dan (UKA, Shikon and WUKF) and upcoming is our own International Invitation Event which will take place on the 9th & 10th April.
