Assistant Instructor Qualification: Open to Red belts (2nd kup) aged 16+ or Blue belts (4th kup) aged 18+.
Instructor Qualification: Open to Dan grades aged 18+.
The course is broken down into two parts.
The first part is about learning the theory of teaching and how to maximise the learning of the student, including:
• The Do’s & Don’ts of teaching. • How to teach difficult techniques in a simple way. • Health & Safety. • Risk Assessments. • Teaching Children. • Making each class an enjoyable experience. • Plus much, much, more.
The second part of the course is about putting the theories into practice with Master Bhadeshia providing different techniques and ways to deliver the lessons to achieve better results.
Drinks will be available, but please bring along a packed lunch. You will also require your dobok & belt, safety equipment, and a pen and paper.
If you’d like to attend, please ask your Instructor for an application form.
Cost: GTI members £120. Non-GTI £170.
If taking as a refresher course, or for current qualified assistant instructors now wishing to take the instructor qualification, there is a nominal charge of £30.

Well done to everyone who took part. And thanks to Connor for stepping up to coach.
