At Atherstone Karate Club, we believe in keeping things clear and simple, so parents and students know exactly what to expect when it comes to costs. We aim to make training affordable and accessible for everyone.

Lesson Fees

Your first lesson is free! After that, it’s just £5 per class, with no monthly fees, direct debits, or contracts—pay only when you attend.
We also offer a family discount for parents, children, or even grandparents who train together!

Annual License and Insurance

After four weeks of training, students are required to take out an annual license through our governing body, the Shukokai Karate Association. This ensures personal insurance and provides a grading book. The cost is:

£23 per year up to purple belt.
£39 per year for brown belt and above.

Gradings (Belt Tests)

All gradings are conducted by senior instructors of the Shukokai Karate Association. The fees are:

£25 per grading up to purple belt.
£35 per grading for higher belts.
£70 for the 1st Dan black belt grading.

Equipment

We don’t require you to buy equipment directly from us. You’re free to purchase uniforms and protective gear from any retailer, and we’re happy to guide you on what to get. If you prefer the convenience of buying from the club, we have a price list available. As a guideline, a training uniform (gi) starts at £20.

We’re dedicated to making your karate journey flexible, affordable, and family-friendly. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask!
