First time? Message us before you come so we can point you to the right class.
Never trained before?
Most people are nervous before their first session. That's normal, and it wears off quickly.
Tell us it's your first time and which class you're thinking of. We'll tell you what to bring and when to arrive.
No-Gi is shorts and a rash guard. For Gi classes, ask us before you buy a gi.
A single class is £10. You don't need to be fit first, and nobody cares what belt you are.
Pay per class or monthly. Ask us anything before you join.
