How it Works
🌟 We provide a FREE 4-Week Beginners Program — The perfect starting point for new members to learn the basics, build confidence, and settle in comfortably before progressing into regular training
A Simple 3-Step Process:
1️⃣ Book your FREE four week beginners course for the next available date (book below - places are limited)
2️⃣ Attend your first session (buy a judo uniform from us if you wish OR just borrow one of ours for the duration of the course)
3️⃣ Complete the course, and if you decide Judo is right for you, simply move onto a KJA Monthly Membership. As a successful Beginners Course graduate, you’ll be awarded your Red Belt during your first month as an official KJA Judo member (see important information regarding gradings at the bottom of the page).
If I move onto a Monthly Membership what's included?
