No, there are no hidden fees. We don't charge for registration, lock-in contracts, cancellations, insurance, or grading (except for RED Belt and above for teens and adults). The weekly fee covers everything. For Black Belt grading, there is a fee for the belt, which includes embroidery of your name, our club (First 2 Strike), the club motto (Pil Sung), and Dan Stripes if eligible. We offer two options based on your preference and budget.

When you start, just wear a t-shirt and comfortable track pants or shorts. Once you're ready, you can order a uniform from us, which includes a White belt. You don't have to wear the jacket during training; pants and a White t-shirt are fine. You'll need gloves, which you can also get from us. We provide all other equipment like focus mitts and bags. So, all you need is a uniform, gloves, and a GREAT ATTITUDE!

Don't worry about your fitness level. Our training will gradually get you fit, and classes are designed so everyone can train at their own pace. As you progress through the belt levels, the intensity and difficulty will increase, but it's always tailored to your abilities. You'll be challenged, but it's all part of the journey.

Absolutely! Everyone starts as a beginner. I did too, with no flexibility, fitness, stamina, or coordination. But with effort, time, dedication, and a growth mindset, you can improve and become the best martial artist you can be!

I recommend attending at least 2 classes per week, but I understand that might not always be possible. Just do your best and give it your all in class. That's what matters most.

That's totally up to you. As we do a Practical Self-Defence, it doesn't matter, and wearing runners can add to the realism. You can also buy martial arts shoes, which are very comfortable as well. But again, that's up to you. I personally train in either martial arts shoes, or barefoot, depending on how I feel.

As the saying goes, "how long is a piece of string?" It really is up to you! The average time, if you train twice per week consistently, could take around 5 years. It really is the journey that matters, and whether it takes you 5 years or 10 years, it doesn't matter, you will learn alot, and have a great journey, and hopefully create some long-lasting friendships and memories along the way. I know I did.
