University of Michigan Shotokan Karate Club |
How to Join? |
|
Beginners (experienced and novices) are welcome to join at any time. While most members are students, anyone is welcome to join our organization and train with us. We have organizational meetings early in the Fall and Winter terms, and new students can start training with us after attending one of these meetings. At any other time, just come to watch any of the regularly scheduled practices, and speak to the instructor before practice. Alternately, you may contact someone beforehand and make arrangements to watch a practice and speak with a instructor.
Beginners are welcome to join at any time!
We hold new member meetings at the beginning of the fall and winter semesters. For the date and time, or to visit practice at other times, check the schedule or contact us by email at shotokan@umich.edu.
For the updated schedule during break, please see the schedule or contact shotokan@umich.edu.
