Beginners Course July 2015
The next CARISMA beginners course will start on Thurs 16 July 2015, to run for 4 consecutive Thursday and Tuesday classes (e.g. 16, 21, 23, 38).
Please notice: you must join the beginners’ course just if you are a total beginner. Any previous experience in striking martial arts (kickboxing, muai thai, karate, tae kwon do, kung fu, etc…) is appreciated and it will allow you to join without going through the beginners’ course. Please get in touch with us if in doubt.
If you’d like to check our prices please look at this page. Please notice that Kelsey Kerridge charges a day entry to every non member entering their premises.
We would like to gather numbers to be prepared so it would be great if you could leave, confidentially, your name in this Doddle poll. Also please make sure to turn up before 6:15pm at Kelsey Kerridge as there might be a long queue.
