Membership

Central London Shodokan is a membership based club and organisation.              

We hold regular 10 week  beginners courses, January/ April and Sept every year! (Next beginners course September 2010!)

£80 (£100 with training kit) covers your once per week introductory course, including annual membership usually £25.  

Regular monthly fees (standing order) for unlimited attendance, £60 (£50 concessions) per month plus £25 (£20 concessions) annual membership & insurance.

Visitor fee per class £10, visitors may pay a visitor fee for a maximum of 2 classes. Membership is required for further practice.

There are times when you are unable to attend class. As with your standard gym membership, standing order payments remain fixed. If however you wish to stop attending classes altogether, you are under no contract, and may cancel the standing order at any point - please let us know though.

The dojo is closed 'annually', usually for the last two weeks of July, visiting Japan. In the rare occasion that classes are cancelled you will be given ample notice (unless due to an emergency beyond our control)! Dojo closures are rare and minimal e.g during the Christmas to New Year period, bank holidays and for the occasional course, which you will probably be attending.

Please note: All Seminars/ Special classes, gradings and private tuition are optional and therefore charged separately.

Juniors

For Junior Aikido term rates please contact the dojo.

Equipment

Members are encouraged to obtain a training uniform as soon as possible.

Uniforms, weapons and other items are available from the club at very reasonable prices.
