CLUB POLICY
CLUB POLICY HELPS US TO RUN SAFELY, EFFICIENTLY AND ETHICALLY
All new students must hold Kombat Federation membership and a
valid licence on their fourth lesson. A student cannot train
under any circumstance unless a licence is applied for on their third
lesson. We are a members' only club. This enables us to maintain
the high standards set and only train fully committed students.
A licence form will be issued to each new student, on becoming a
full member which will affiliate the student to Kombat Federation
who are affiliated to the English Karate Federation.
No false promises given, your child will become a competent
karateka if they train regularly, students will learn to be more
assertive and will receive high quality tuition to reach their martial
art potential.
Students are expected to practice in their own time to pass their
gradings and will only move forwards in their karate training by
working hard in the classes, attending courses, listening to their
sensei and following their advice. All students have to train for a
minimum of five years to be eligible for a Black belt 1st Dan grading.
All students who pass a Black belt grading before the age of 16
years are classed as junior Dan grades only. Students have to be
over 13 to be considered for a junior 3rd Dan grading exam. In the
past 30 years Kombat Federation have had over 2000 students pass
their Dan grading.
Many students who have gone on to achieve the rank of Black belt
have various Special Needs, namely: Autism, Aspergers, ADHD,
Dyslexia and Dyspraxia. Karate is a recommended activity
which helps kids with Dyspraxia.

who lack confidence or who are bullied or may have learning
difficulties attend classes on a regular basis and train alongside
their friends and grow in confidence gradually through the
