Frequently Asked Questions
Below are some commonly asked questions we get before folks join us, if these do not help you, feel free to get in touch with us and we will help your directly.
What do I need at my first session?
Your wonderful self, a water bottle and any weapons or pieces of equipment that are of interest to you! If you have experience in other weapon arts, bring the tools you are familiar with and our instructors will check them over for usability within our practice. It’s advised to wear comfortable clothes you would wear to a gym or other training session.
Is the session suitable for beginners?
Absolutely. Our instructors will take you through the basics in the first hour and introduce to your how we conduct out sparring and get your hands on a range of weapons and introduce you to other chapter members.
What if I have prior experience?
Brilliant. We love introducing new ideas into our training halls. Our instructors will ask you questions and take you through a guided sparring session. This will show us elements which may need work and your current strengths so we can deliver lessons that benefit your skillset. Provided the right kit is there, you will be able to jump straight into training with us.
Where are the Chapters and what times do they train?
Please see our Chapters page for up-to-date locations and timings for each chapter.
How much does it cost to train?
Our introduction session is £7.50, which covers the administration needs and the first session you have with us. Afterwards, we charge £15 per session. Members can access the subscription model, detailed on the page linked below.
What's the difference between a membership and a subscription?
A membership is essentially your insurance. The Order will cover your insurance for your first four sessions, and after that you’ll need to take out your own membership (insurance) to continue to train. Memberships can be paid monthly £6.25/mo) or annually (£75/year).
Subscriptions are a way of paying for training. Without a subscription, you can pay as you go by buying a single training pass (£18) as and when you need to, or a bundle of x4 passes (£65). Passes are used up as training sessions are attended. However, if you attend regularly and would like to save a little extra money, you can take out a monthly subscription. Subscriptions are billed on the 1st of each month and takes away the hassle of having to remember to buy your passes. It’s also a great option if you want to attend sessions at multiple chapters. Find out more about subscriptions here. Please note, you must have an active membership to take out a subsctiption.
