QUESTIONS.
Does my child need any experience?
No previous martial arts experience is needed to begin. The aim is to start with the basics and build from there.
What if my child is shy?
They don’t have to arrive feeling confident. Let the instructor know beforehand so their first session can begin with that in mind.
Which age group is right for my child?
Our planned groups are ages 4–6, ages 7–12 and teens. Select a group in the trial section to see its focus. Final class placement will be confirmed with the instructor.
What should they wear for their first class?
Comfortable clothes they can move in are a good starting point, along with a water bottle. Uniform and footwear requirements will be confirmed before attending.
Where and when are the classes?
Classes take place at Roding Valley High School, Alderton Hill, Loughton, IG10 3JA, and Murray Hall, 106 Borders Lane, Loughton, IG10 3SB. Check the booking calendar for available sessions and confirm the venue in your booking details.
