Pay to Play

Just curious about how much Aikido costs around the world.

I train in the North-East of England at a White Rose dojo (White Rose being based in Yorkshire)

Membership costs £15 a year and sessions cost between £2.50 and £5 for two hours (depending on who you train with)

Courses cost £15 and kyu gradings cost £10 and yudansha cost £20

What about the rest of you guys.

Re: Pay to Play

Here's a poll I took back in 2003 as well as in 2005 (out of curiosity to see if there was any change):

How much do you pay each month for your regular aikido classes (in US dollars)?

Re: Pay to Play

Thanks Jun, in hindsight i should have guessed that it would have been asked before. Quite interesting that while there has been a change it is consistent (i.e. the distribution curve stays pretty much the same
