Set up your monthly training fee
Now that your free trial is complete, your first step is to set up your monthly training fee, using the payment button below:
After four weeks of classes (or sooner if you prefer), you’ll need to purchase a one-off starter pack. This includes:
- Tote bag
- Annual insurance
- Karate gi (uniform)
- Club badge (already on, so no sewing required)
- Licence and grading book (upon completion of first grading)
- Access to our student portal
- Club leaflet and a coffee and cake voucher for our official coffee partner, EspressBros (a slightly random addition, we know, but their coffee really is that good!)
The cost for this starter pack is: - £35 for gi sizes 100–150
- £45 for gi sizes 160–200
Please provide the student’s height in the form below so we can ensure the correct gi size!
Once your membership is confirmed, you’ll be added to our dedicated WhatsApp group for your class.
This is our primary communication channel for:
- Class updates

We occasionally use polls in the group when making decisions about events or changes, as we genuinely value our members’ views and community input.
When asked about attendance, please respond with a 👍 or vote in the poll. This helps us plan sessions safely and effectively.
Please ensure notifications are enabled and check the group regularly, as important updates are shared there.
While you’re here on our website, feel free to explore the rest of the website to learn more about our instructors, club values, events, and club shop for branded merchandise.
Your membership gives you access to exclusive online resources designed to support your training.
