Faqs
- Q. What are the legal requirements to run a club?
A. Each instructor running a club must be insured for public liability and all students training must hold up to date licences and be covered member to member. We recommend it is a very good idea for the instructor to also take out instructor indemnity insurance.
- Q. When I send off licences or want coloured belt certificates, how long does it take?
A. Normally when bank holidays are not involved, usually 48 hours.
- Q. What about blackbelt gradings?
A. We allow all our instructors to grade their own students up to blackbelt
- Q. I have heard that you do video gradings, what are these?
A. We appreciate that living in Great Britain, many instructors have clubs and come from all around the country. So therefore sometimes travelling long distances for a dan grading can be a little inconvenient. We operate our gradings on a time served basis, and therefore when an instructor feels they are ready to take their next dan grade up they can video their own grading and submit it to us here at head office for approval.
- Q. How do I apply to be dan graded?
- Q. How much do E.K.S.A. dan gradings cost?
A. The cost of Dan Gradings is upon application.
- Q. What about courses?
A. The association along with our our inter-connected association run many courses throughout the year. The most asked for courses are on martial arts coaching, refereeing and judging, and self defence instruction. Any candidate is able to use our services, you only have to contact us directly for details.
- Q. Can I run competitions so that my students can take part?
A. All instructors and clubs once insured and qualified are legally entitled to run their own interclub, regional and national tournaments independently.
