THE members of Shibumi Karate Club are enjoying their new home at The Training Station in Saltcoats.

The studio, based at the town’s railway station, wanted to open a community venue where groups could meet and keep fit.

And now karate and Tae Kwon Do classes are running from the Training Station. The venue also has line dancing, pilates and plays host to the Julie Carson School of Dance.

Gail Wilson’s West Coast Stompers meet on Tuesday mornings and there are hopes to offer yoga classes soon at the Training Station.

They also have room for classes on Saturday and Sundays if any group wants to use it as a base.
