2. Shorin (kobayashi) Ryu (Shidokan)

3. Three - Mon & Wed (2hrs); Sat (1.5hrs)

4. No perks.

This is what my dojo offers. I don't pay as I am one of the instructors.

1: £29 a month (Around $55 at the current exchange rates)

2. Shotokan Karate

3. We train 4 days a week at my dojo, but as we affiliate with my Sensei people can actually train 7 days a week for the same price if they are prepared to travel.

4. One free private lesson a month, free uniform at start, cheaper seminars

We may be setting up access to a gym once a month as well. (To start with)

1. Full price is €34 (=$44). Students and kids pay €25=($33)

(I'm one of the instructors, so I don't pay.)

2. Sankukai karate (originates in shito ryu and shukokai karate styles)

3. 3 classes/week. Each class 1.5h long.

4. After you get promoted to a higher belt and move to a different group (i.e. from a group of yellow and orange belts to a group of green belts) you can still attend classes of the belts that are lower than yours. That gives you the total of 5 classes/week.
