    Hi all!. I was wondering if you could make any recommendations of Karate classes in South Dublin for a 15 year old female, who would be a beginner to karate, but is very keen to start lessons!.



    Thanks.

    Sensei Douglas Doyle runs an excellent karate club in Balally.

    Sensei Scott Langley runs an excellent club in Ranelagh

    I would endorse what's been said here about Jacqui O'Shea; she is a top-notch instructor and a really lovely person. She'd be a great role model for your 15yo if you're close to Lucan.

    I've encountered Niall Malone of ASKO and he seems like an excellent instructor also, based also on feedback from a couple of his students.

    Best of luck,

    Z
