Paul Barnett began his karate training in 1982 . By 1986 sensei Paul had gained his black belt under the British karate association . In 1990 PB KARATE SCHOOL was formed running a few busy classes in Winshill     , Burton On Trent . Soon more classes were opened with student success repeatedly published in local  newspapers and national martial art magazines .

With more tournament success and more black belt achievements throughout the school PB KARATE SCHOOL became one of the most popular karate schools in the Midlands . With the support from a strong association and a great team of instructors the school continues to thrive 30+ years later .
