WE'RE BACK

 


Hello Tigers Students and Families

Happy New Year and Best Wishes for 2026 - we're looking forward to seeing you back in training and progressing your martial arts skills!

Classes at Macleod YMCA resume next Wednesday 28th January, with Kinglake West classes starting next Tuesday 27th January (Kinglake students please note there is a prorata rate applied for the first half-term fee as Tim will be away for a week during this period).

New students who are taking up our free trial offer should still complete the class booking form to secure your spot!

Form for the 1st half-term class booking and payment information for Term 1 2026:

PLEASE NOTE: This is only a booking notification form - please complete payment via your own online Banking system, or if paying by Cash please place money in an envelope with the student(s) name and purpose of payment. You will need to complete this form for each payment you are making. Doing it this way avoids third-party costs and is therefore cheaper for you. 

At Tigers, families only pay for the first two family members' class training fees - 3rd and subsequent members can train for free. Please include the names of all family members who are training below for class management purposes. Fees to be paid in advance otherwise the casual pay as you go rate will apply. Paying in advance offers an approximately 15 to 30 percent saving depending on the selected package. If you miss some of your half term classes we encourage students to make-up classes during the term, or the other option would be to make up the fee payment using the casual fee of $18 per class. 

Instead of an upfront full term fee we try to spread the cost into two parts over the term to help families budgets. 

Please also find a short retrospective video of our Dojangs over the last few years here - enjoy!

Kind Regards,
Tigers Taekwondo Team
