Karate Club participants are entitled to train at both facilities and on two of the three days per week for the posted program fee. Those that prefer all three days will pay an additional fee. The choice of days and locations is not pre-selected and can change any week as required by the participant without notice.

All levels and ages classes are structured to offer a more diverse training opportunity and experience, which includes a mix of total group activity as well as separate training groups selected by age and/or belt levels. This allows very effective multi age participation in the classes.

TRAINING FEES

Although training fees are based on students training two days of the week, those who prefer to train more can pay an additional fee for the third day. The karate program is taught in pre-scheduled sessions based on historical periods which account for Christmas, Spring Break and so on. Since the sessions vary in duration the fees also vary by session. Please contact the West Vancouver Rec Centers for the current session dates and fees.

ORGANIZATION AND ASSOCIATION DUES

Those that continue in their karate club training and test for higher belts will be required to pay modest additional fees for membership in SportBC sanctioned KarateBC and for the International Shotokan Karate Federation. Please discuss with your instructor.
