Training and other important dates

TRAINING/SPARRING KIT

We have decided to insist that students have their own training/sparring kit. This is for several reasons, one being that of hygiene. It is also not possible for us to provide enough equipment for everyone to train together. You will not need to have all your own equipment until you reach GREEN BELT.
