Apart from wearing the right clothes, there is nothing else which you have to bring with you on the day. Changing and refreshment facilities vary so we advise that you come prepared in case there are limited facilities available. For example: You may wish to bring a bottle of water.

Yes. The purpose of the trial lesson is for you to find a martial art style and a school that you’ll love.
In almost all cases, people choose the school they try first but if for whatever reason you would like to try another school, simply book another lesson through this website in the same way as you did with the first school.
