For full details – CLICK HERE 


Your Remainder Of Term Fee

Once you have completed your trial, you will have a remainder of term fee. This fee is your training fee for the term.

After your Beginners Term, you will move into a term fee structure.
We have an online sign-up form for each term,
much like the one you used for the beginner’s trial.

Each term fee is due within the first 2 weeks of term
We follow WA govt school terms.

Many of the venues we hire are at recreation centres
that ask for the terms hire upfront to hold the room
So for us to hold onto our spaces, we have to ask
our students to pay the same.

Your Protective Gear

Safety in Martial arts is of the utmost importance to us,
We always ensure a safe environment to learn from falling
and covering yourself properly to having the correct
protective gear to avoid injury or injuring someone else.

Protective gear should be purchased as soon as possible.
If for some reason this is difficult, we have listed the
protective gear in order of purchase.

We have sourced our own brand protective gear that is the same
as one of the world’s leading Taekwondo brands (Rebranded)
If we don’t have our brand in stock,
we choose Daedo Taekwondo products for their quality.
These guards should last 3-4 years

Required Safety Gear In Order Of Purchase

1 – Mouthguard
2 – Taekwondo Gloves
3 – Taekwondo Arm Guards
4 – Taekwondo Shin Guards / Shin-Foot Guards
5 – Taekwondo Groin Guards (Male)

Please see your instructor to order this.

 


Your Seminars

You most likely heard the instructors talk about the Mid-Term Seminar in class. As a Beginner you won’t need to attend this.
Once you earn a coloured level, these seminars will be required on the
same term that you grade and are mandatory to pass your belt.

For lower belts we focus on break falling and landing properly,
also basic tripping and throwing needed for training.

Upper Belts focus on Weapon Defence,
mostly formed around knife & stick releases and defences

Most times they are week 5- Week 6 of term.
We also offer a second chance later in the term
for those who couldn’t attend the first

Seminars attract a small fee and is separate to the term pass
as only those grading need to do it.

 


Your Belt Examinations

Grading or Belt Examinations are done in the last week of term,
If you have done the training (Gained enough experience points)
If the correct grading term for the term pass you chose
and providing you have done the mid-term seminar (Except Beginners)

Once selected to grade, there will be an online form and fee to finalize. Then you will be tested by a Black Belt (Must be a 4th Dan or higher) Upon approval, you will be awarded a certificate of level and a coloured belt

Little Dragons have 12 belt levels
Taekwondo Central has 12 Coloured Belt Levels
Black Belts have 9 Dans (Levels)

Important Notice For Australind Leschenault Leisure Centre Classes

Due to the electoral commission needing our venue for 7 weeks, we now have been moved to the Australind Tennis Pavilion until late March. This venue is across the carpark from the room we use normally at LLC.

We have encountered a problem of space with the tennis pavilion unable to fit all our students. After a scout around to find a temporary venue that is larger, there are no venues available in Australind. So we have been put into quite a predicament.

Little Dragons (Tuesdays)
Our Tuesday Little Dragons.
We will meet on Tuesday at Australind Tennis Pavillion at the normal class time (4.45pm to 5.30pm)
If our numbers exceed what the room can hold safely, we do have a second alternative venue that’s available that can hold bigger numbers, so we feel this class won’t be disrupted too much.

Taekwondo (Tuesdays & Thursdays) – First 7 Weeks Of Term
With Online Term 1 Passes (Replacing The Cards) are not due until 12th February so we are unsure of how many students we have this term. Our believe Taekwondo class will need to be split to accommodate our numbers.

To start we have 3 timeslots we would like to put forward.
We have attempted to give younger children the earlier timeslot and provided 3rd option a short drive away

Tuesday        9yrs – 13 yrs              5.45pm to 6.45pm       (Australind Tennis Pavilion)
Tuesday        14yrs – Adult.           6.45pm to 7.45pm        (Australind Tennis Pavilion)
Thursday      9yrs – 13 yrs              5.45pm to 6.45pm       (Australind Tennis Pavilion)
Thursday      14yrs – Adult.           6.45pm to 7.45pm        (Australind Tennis Pavilion)
Friday           All Ages                     5.00pm to 6.00pm       (Eaton Recreation Centre)

To start we are going ask our students to nominate which class(es) they wish to train at via our guidelines above.
You can find the link to our form below.

Thank you for your understanding, since being informed we have been sourcing other larger venues for our temporary situation but have not been successful. With school gym enquires unable to respond when school returned, we have waited to exhaust every possibility.

Please don’t forget you are free to travel and train at any of our other classes free of charge.
