What is the cost of training

You can find out everything about the monthly membership fees in the cost overview: cost per month.

All courses are held in English?

Please note: Many of our Instructors speak English. We are a karate club in Berlin, so the main language in the karate classes is of course German and all karate terms in Japanese. Most of the explanations in Mitte are also in English. In Berlin Mitte we have many foreign guests and friends from all over the world who visit us and also members who understand little or no German in our classes.
Unfortunately, we had a participant who gave us a bad Google rating because a training (a free trial training) in Pankow was not in English that he could attend without paying for it. Please take note: In Pankow the training classes are only sometimes in English.
