Frequently Asked Questions
What do I need to wear when I start?
As there may be a lot of kicking and stretching involved it is recommended that you wear baggy sports trousers and a T-shirt for your first couple of lessons. It is also recommended that you remove all jewellery as it may be dangerous to you or your training partner, or it may get broken during the rigorous training. Any jewellery that cannot be removed should be taped over.
Eventually you will probably be expected to wear a do-gi or keikogi. This is a traditional training uniform, which is hard-wearing and has been adapted to incorporate high kicks. It consists of trousers and a wrap around top (females are required to wear a white t-shirt under their gi top, to prevent embarrassing situations). Do-gi are available in a variety of sizes and weights and a range of prices. Members are supplied with a uniform when they first join us.
