Costs

The Kugatsu Karate-do is a non-profit making karate club, all the proceeds being put back into the club for the benefit of our students.  All of our instructors, coaches and helpers give up their time freely, no one takes a wage from leading the various activities of the club. 

As a result, we are able to keep the training costs at what we, at least, consider to be a very reasonable level.  Our aim being to ensure that our members train because they enjoy it, they don't train in order that the instructors can earn a living.  Similarly, we hope that all our members, and their parents or carers, feel that training at the Kugatsu Karate-Do is not only very competitively priced, but also good value for money.

So what are the costs involved?

The class fees vary depending on the venue, the details are outlined below.

Kelvindale (The Scout Hall)

The following fees apply to ALL classes at Kelvindale; £2.50 for junior members (5 - 15 years) and £3.00 for senior members (16 years and over).

 ~    £1.70 for under 18's (£1.55 on the production of Glasgow Kidz  Card or a Young Scot Card), and
~    £3.35 for 18 year olds and over (30p will be refunded by the Kugatsu Karate-Do on the production of the Leisure Centre receipt).
