Not at all. Everyone is encouraged to work to their own limits, whether this be 1 sit-up or a 100! The road to any journey starts with the first step. It is also good to note that in terms of Self Defence, fitness is not so important, as long as you can physically escape from the assailant it does not matter whether you can run 25 miles or bench press your own body weight. The quotation, "Your fit for what you train for." is a nice way to put it.
On your first session you are welcome to wear loose comfortable clothing, like tracksuit bottoms and a t-shirt. Eventually though we do encourage you to purchase a Gi (Training Suit) as it does stop the wear and tear on your clothes. We train in bare feet, although due to Covid wearing grippy socks is now an option. It is a good idea to have short clean finger and toe nails, as this stops them getting caught or bent back and prevents you scratching your partner. All Jewellery needs to be removed before training, so as earrings and rings cannot scratch your partner when training and necklaces cannot get caught and tighten or break. On a more personal safety note, earrings can also get caught and could be ripped from your ear and rings can trap circulation to your fingers when they swell with heat and exercise. Excessive make-up should not be worn as it can rub off on your partners Gi. It is also a good idea to bring a bottle of water with you. Your instructor will be delighted to meet you at your first session and they happily answer to either the term “Sensei” or by their first name. When a technique is being shown, never be afraid to ask to see it again, if you did not fully understand it, as the Instructors are there to help and support you throughout your training.
Your never too old to learn to defend yourself. We believe that everyone is entitled to be able to protect themselves and their families, no matter their age, size or strength. Taijutsu is a dynamic Martial Art which uses natural body movements and avoidance techniques to evade or escape a would be attacker. Applying this simple technique the students is shown to use their natural weapons e.g. feet, hands, elbows and knees to effectively take control of the situation with minimal damage to themselves and render the aggressor incapacitated to escape. Taijutsu is not a “Sport” art it allows for a smaller or weaker person to effectively defend themselves against a larger or stronger opponent!
In today’s world many people protect their homes and cars with alarms but few think of how to protect themselves or their family. Every day, whether going to work or the shops we are exposed to possible violence such as Road Rage, Muggings and Assault. Taijutsu is a dynamic Martial Art which uses natural body movements and avoidance techniques to evade or escape a would be attacker. Applying this simple technique the students is shown to use their natural weapons e.g. feet, hands, elbows and knees to effectively take control of the situation with minimal damage to themselves and render the aggressor incapacitated to escape.

Are You 1 In 70 Students? Do you have dedication to perfecting your skills? Persistence in the face of adversity? Respect for self and others? Perseverance and determination when others give up? Are you able to confront your fears and defeat them? To see failure as an excuse to try again? To face and lose your ego and accept yourself for who you are? To be independent of mind and thought? To be a Black Belt takes more than most are willing to give. This is why in this style it takes a minimum of 7 years to achieve Black Belt. This is not to train yourself for just a grading but for life itself.
Please do drop us an email if you need to change your training day or time, so we can advise on availability of a place for you. With regard to Junior students, it is best for a parent or guardian to discuss with the Instructor’s whether it is suitable for the student to move to their chosen group. Once agreed if you could kindly e-mail us just to confirm your wish to move group.
When the Instructor suggests that your 13-14 year old child is ready to move to a Senior class, this usually happens once a student becomes a suitable size (not belt colour) to move into the Seniors. All Junior students are offered 1 months trial at the junior rate to see how they like the Senior class. After the 1st month, the parent or guardian will need amend their standing order to the Senior rate due to the longer hour and a half training sessions.
We grade roughly every two terms, or when the Instructor deems that the students are ready to grade. This does mean that the grading times are often flexible, but we do try to give everyone as much notice as possible that a grading will be coming up. Please do keep an eye on the Calendar for not only the term dates but the up and coming grading dates too!
All our fees are paid by Standing Order. Standing Orders are not Direct Debits, this means that once you sign up with the Ronin Taijutsu, the fee you are asked to pay will not change unless you move from a Junior Class to a Senior Class. Please do contact us for the fees for your local club. Once you have decided to join us and sign up, you are on a fixed rate for the duration of your training, but if you stop training for any reason and return at a later date you will have to pay the latest rates. How our Standing Order payments work is..... Every year we train for 37 weeks a year during school term times, we totalled the cost of these 37 weeks a year, added your membership and insurance then divided the total amount by 12 so that the banks can take a set amount each month of the year by Standing Order. This means that you are spreading the cost of your term time classes throughout the year on a regular monthly payment which means that there is no need to stop or alter your standing order.
We are always sorry to see students leave our Dojo's and lose this life saving skill. Please do contact us, as we maybe able to see if a more suitable training time or day is available or if a change of Instructor would be preferred. In the event of you wishing to cease training we only ask for 1 months notice to stop training at any of the clubs this acknowledgement needs to be sent to us via e-mail. We also remind you that you are in control of the Standing Order and your bank will only accept your notification to stop it. The Ronin Taijutsu can't authorise the cancellation of your standing order and are not liable to refund any over payments received.
