If you'd like to start training, you're welcome on any Thursday evening. We run   special beginner’s courses from time to time, but students don't  have to attend   one of these to start training. You're also always welcome to come along and   watch a class.

  What else do you need to know?

   • You must be 18 or over.
   • You should wear loose clothing (e.g. T shirt and tracksuit bottoms) that you don't      mind being stretched or pulled.
   • You must remove all jewellery. If an item can't be removed, it must be covered      with sticking tape.
   • Finger and toe nails need to be kept short and long hair tied up.
   • It would be sensible NOT to eat a meal just before you train
   • We do not recommend that you wear eye glasses. If you need to, we do not      accept responsibility for damage to them. Please ensure they are safe to use for      sport. Also please ensure you have a spare pair to use for driving, just in case      they are damaged during a class.
   • Anyone under the influence of drugs or alcohol won't be allowed to train.
   • You have to tell your teacher about any medical conditions that might affect your      ability to train or exercise. If the teacher has concerns about your ability to train,      you may be asked to obtain a doctor's permission before continuing.
   • For your safety, you must do exactly what your teacher instructs.
