    Wado-Kai in the GAA centre on 090294585

    Edit: I found the facebook account for the Wado-Kai club http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=17964148036

    Good luck.

    There is a very good kyokushin karate club in Mullingar run by a guy called Ken Fitzpatrick...
    I know its a bit farther away, but I've heard lots of really good stuff about Ken, and I think he has kids classes on a Saturday, and during the week.

    Heres a link

    Best of luck,

    I think 5 is very young to start karate. If you want him to stay with it, be sure you find a club where he's going to make friends & have fun. The serious karate can wait for at least another 5 years.

    Cheers,

    Z

    (Sorry, I don't know the clubs in Athlone)
