HOW IT WORKS

YOUR FIRST CLASS STEP BY STEP

Book your Class

Thirty seconds with the form - or skip it entirely and just turn up. Either works.

Turn up 10 minutes early

Shorts and a t-shirt are all you need. We will meet you at the door, show you around and pair you with a friendly partner.

Roll

A proper first session: warm up, learn a technique, try it with a partner. You will be sweating and smiling by the end.
