Terms and Conditions


The use of the term student is referring to anyone who participates in Training with Tiger Martial Arts, which could be a child, or an adult, male or female.

1.0: Attendance and punctuality
It is of the utmost importance that the student is punctual to each lesson. If it is your child that is training, and they arrive before the instructor has arrived on site, it is required that you please remain with them until a member of staff is present. Until a member of staff is on site you are responsible for their safety and well-being. Should you choose to leave them unattended, we hold no responsibility for them. It is also important that you arrive promptly and on time to collect your child. Many of our instructors have other classes to teach and need to leave immediately after the class. If your lateness inconveniences other customers, or our instructor, we reserve the right to charge the cost of loss of earnings to you.

1.1: By agreeing to these Terms and Conditions, it is agreed that should you drop your child early to their lesson, you are responsible for your child until lessons begin, and that Tiger Martial Arts and its owners, operators, officers, employees, instructors, students, or agents hold no responsibility over your child until the lesson has begun and they are in the training room with the instructor.

2.0: Change of location and time.
Tiger Martial Arts reserves the right to change the time or location of any class for any reason. In the unlikely event that a class is cancelled for any reason, a refund would not usually be offered, although the student is welcome to attend any other classes in the area, provided those classes are open to all Tiger Martial Arts students and are open to their age bracket.

2.1: By agreeing to these Terms and Conditions, it is understood that changes may be made to location and time of classes.

Failure to pay may incur a charge of £5 for the first month of non-payment, and £10 for any following months that the payment owed is not paid.

We reserve the right to discontinue training for any student that we deem as persistently disobedient.

Discipline is embedded in the culture of martial arts, and is required for training.

  • 2. You are also more than welcome to purchase your own martial arts uniform, or not avail yourself of the uniform which is in your monthly fees as itemised in the breakdown, in which circumstance you would need to purchase outgrown or lost uniforms yourself, or as separate transactions to us.
