New Students
How to start karate classes --
First, call BKA at 268-1108 or, email Sensei Burnside at inkki@aol.com and set up an appointment for your Orientation Lesson. We like to schedule your first lesson in the late afternoon before the evening classes have started, or at the end of classes in the evening. (Before 5:00 PM or after 7:30 PM)
At this time we can fill out the necessary paper work, and receive your first tuition payment. There are no enrollment fees or registration fees. Your Orientation Lesson is a private or semiprivate class. You will learn your first few karate techniques and the class procedures. This also gives you a chance to meet the instructor, see the karate school, and ask any questions you might have about karate.
If you are planning on starting karate training, you might want to start preparing your body by doing a few push ups and sit ups. Karate focuses on training the body and physical conditioning.
Your karate uniform --
You can purchase your uniform at BKA, or if you already have a white uniform, you may wear that. Everyone wears a white karate 'gi' during classes.
Tuition payments --
Our preferred method payment is Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT). We use a company called EasyPay that handles all of our accounts. This payment is automatically transferred on a date you pick each month. We also accept tuition payments, in advance, for the year.
You may call Sensei Burnside at 601-268-1108 to find out our current rates of tuition. |
