When you arrive, step inside and remove shoes. Sensei will greet you very soon and show you what to do. Best if you arrive 10 minutes early to first class. Sensei will lead you throughout the classes, as you start to learn techniques from the syllabus.

The more consistently you train, the faster you will progress. To see steady and noticeable improvement, a minimum of two training sessions per week is recommended. This allows your skills, fitness, and understanding to develop consistently. Training three times per week is ideal for most students, while many choose to train five times per week to maximise their progress. Consistency is key regular training builds skill, confidence, and long-term results.

For the Beginners Introduction Course a uniform is not required.  Wear something loose and comfortable.  Training is done bare foot. Upon successfully completing your first grading and being awarded your Yellow Belt, you will want a uniform. What else do I need to bring to my first class? A water bottle. A positive , “I’ll give it a go" attitude. An open mind. Also, feel free to bring a friend (or two), or a parent, they may also wish to join in.  The more the merrier.

Currently classes at “Hombu Dojo” are limited to 25 students per class. As demand grows, halls will be hired where classes will get up to 120 students or more. Each class is 1 hour.
