How to join


We invite you or your children to attend several complimentary orientation classes in the class you are interested in joining. 

We offer up to two complimentary orientation classes for Tigers, Sword and Hapkido students, and up to three for Dragons students, before you decide whether to join.

When you first come along to try out one of our classes, you can wear normal gym clothes or light, loose-fitting sports clothing. 

During the class, an instructor will give you some one-on-one training and ask you about what you want to achieve out of Hapkido. This will allow us to focus on areas specific to your goals as you start your journey with us.

Book a FREE ORIENTATION CLASS - callum@hapkido.co.nz or phone/text 021 330 989.

If he doesn't answer his phone, please leave a message or send a text. If you are calling from a private number, please send a text with a number to call you on.

After a couple of orientation classes, you will have a good idea of whether our academy is a good fit for you or your children. If you are undecided, you can try one more class, after which you can decide whether to join.
