What are the costs?
TLDR: - 2nd class you'll need to join. A one year membership (and insurance) is - When you join you get four weeks free classes. Come to as many as you want in this time, no need to book a place. - Make it to 8 classes and decide to stop? Ok, you've given me a fair chance, i'll refund your £25 joining fee to you out of my own pocket. If I have the cash on me i'll give it to you there and then, otherwise I can bank transfer it and you will have it within a couple of hours. - Make it to 10 classes. I'll give you a free training t-shirt - it's that funny sports fabric with an embroidered logo, by now you'll have seen other students wearing them. - When your free four weeks ends you'll start paying training fees, full details HERE. I know it all looks a bit complicated, there are several combinations of discounts possible and that results in a lot of options! - Training fees are 'non-contractual', I don't do direct debits (standing orders are basically automated payments and you always have control) and any time you want to stop or pause your training you can, no problem. - You don't need any equipment to start with. You can get a uniform as soon as you like but you only 'need' to have one in order to grade (usually around 3 months after you start, depending on when you start). A student uniform is £32, all equipment should be ordered through your Instructor (me). - Gradings are held every 3 months and cost £25. Students are only allowed to grade when they are ready to pass, but if they do fail all retakes are free. - Make it to one year - well done! I will renew your memebership and insurance for free every year you continue training! - Feel free to message me with any questions - I will be happy to answer and I promise not to put you on a mailing list or start pestering you! For a TLDR that was actually quite long, lol! But if you have time for a more in-depth explaination please do continue! |

| "What are the costs?" This has got to be the most common question I get, and fair enough. |
 The best way to get your questions answered is to come and talk to me at a class! |
 No contracts, no obligations, it really is free! |
1st class is completely free and without obligation. |
| If a student attends eight classes then decides not to continue I regard this as having given me a 'fair chance' and I will refund to them their initial payment for their student licence out of my own pocket. I am very happy to be able to say that everyone who has given me this 'fair chance' has continued with their training and I have never needed to issue a refund. |
 You'll be giving yourself a 'fair chance' too - you are capable of so much more than you realise! |
 Plain clothes are absolutely fine for beginners to train in, and you'll always be allowed to wear your trainers in class! |
A dobok is not required until a student's first grading (normally after 2/3 months of training). I understand that some other groups give free uniforms to people who join them (usually with a long-term contract) but I have seen the quality of those uniforms and they are far inferior to ours. To put it in perspective I took four years to reach black belt. I had one uniform, and was sad to have to retire it in favour of a black belt uniform because it was still in perfectly usable condition! |
And now we get to training fees! The number of options make training fees seem a bit complicated at first, but this is because I include several possible discounts that people can claim (such as paying in bulk or by standing order, training as a family group, and attending lots of classes). I will be happy to explain it all if you come to a class and, but the key features of my system are: - I don't usually charge for classes that aren't attended. - Family groups of up to five get a huge discount for the 3rd, 4th and 5th members of the group. - I don't charge for the third+ class attended in a week. - Training fees can be put 'on hold' or changed whenever your circumstances require. - I don't do contracts, students are free to discontinue their training at any time without penalty. |
 I think fairness is very important so I don't charge for what you don't get! |
|
Training fees are a regular payment you make for classes, without these there is no class! |
|
But you won't just be getting a class, you'll be getting me - a dedicated Instructor who actually cares about your development! I don't do lesson plans, I see who turns up to a class and then I teach what's appropriate for the people in it. Every single one of my students matters to me and I want to see every one of them thrive, that can include you too! |

 Taekwondo has been around for a long time, there's a reason for that. ZumbaJazzaCombatDancersize, or whatever thing is popular right now, is here today and gone tomorrow. There's a reason for that too. |
Compared to fitness classes we are usually cheaper AND what we do actually leads somewhere! Come to us and do Taekwondo and in a year you'll be doing new things and getting a real sense of progression and development. Go to one of the many weird and wonderful fad fitness classes that pop up and if it even still exists in a year you'll be doing the same thing and getting nowhere. |
Compared to gyms we are super cheap! In fact we are almost the opposite to what most gyms are! I don't do contracts, you can stop anytime. They do massive long contracts! I WANT to see you in class as often as possible. They would rather get you signed up and never see you again! I CARE about my students and their progression, tailoring my classes to suit individual's needs. They couldn't care less how you are and will charge an absolute fortune for a trainer! |
|
| So there it is! And I really hope that you come and meet me and get that first free lesson! Taekwondo can be a lot of things to a lot of people: Improve your fitness Improve your confidence Learn to defend yourself and your loved-ones Do something new and interesting Make new friends A new hobby Maybe even get that Black belt! |
