No, you don't need to register in advance - you can just come and try it out! There is room for everyone!
But if you do wish to register beforehand, you can do that here (in Swedish only unfortunately):

We instruct in Swedish, but use Japanese terminology, which all traditional karate schools do. All our instructors speak English as well and we have students from the entire world.
It's fine to try out a class. You can start in the lower group and then move up, or start in the upper group, and then move down if it becomes too much at once. You can move freely between groups.
You can take part in any sessions you want throughout the week, up to the degree you are graded. As a beginner, there are several sessions a week you can join.
The term normally starts around 15 January and 20 August. Keep an eye on the news on the right side of the front page.

In the children's group, people train between the ages of 7 and 12. In the youth group, people between the ages of 13 and 17 are welcome. In the adult groups, everyone trains from the age of 13 and up. Parents of children and young people are warmly welcome to train at their children's training sessions!
You train as often or as little as you want. At least 2 times/week is common. The more the better! Six days a week training is held in our own dojo, Skiffervägen 102.
Children normally start at the age of 7, but anyone who wants to can try! If the children are mature enough to join in the training, and think it's fun, they are welcome! It usually resolves itself.
No, it's completely voluntary and just another way to practice! But the parents who exercise with their children express that they think it's great fun, and the children think it's fun too. You can always try!
Before you have bought a suit, and while you are trying it on, you train in normal training clothes - for example sweatpants and a T-shirt. You practice karate barefoot!
You can buy clothing through the club. Talk to your trainer who will help you! You place an order and pay in advance, then the suit arrives after about 1 week. We have many different costumes at varying prices, for both children and adults.
A suit, gi, lasts for several years.
SEK 350 (approx.) costume for children
​
SEK 500 (approx.) costume for adults

Everyone is welcome to train with us! We respect all styles and you get to keep your belt. If you want to graduate within JKA, your previous knowledge/style/association will be assessed individually by the head coach.
You can start in any group you want (to which you are graded). You are allowed to try your hand at it. It can e.g. be a good idea to train in a group with beginners a couple of times and then move up when you get started. You can move freely between groups.
Karate is a way of life where in your karate training you strive to develop your character by seeking perfection in the techniques. You do not need to grade, but can train at your own pace and for your own development.If you want to grade from 2 kyu and above, you must tell your coach or email kingen50@gmail.com within 2 weeks at the beginning of the semester.Also remember that grading booklets are available for purchase
You can find grading requirements here!
Within Lund's Karate Club, we process a large amount of personal data. They are used, among other things, to keep member registers in order, distribute financial support or arrange competitions and training.
There are special rules for how personal data must be handled in a safe and secure manner. On 25 May 2018, the Personal Data Act will be replaced by the new Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which means that the requirements will change slightly. Due to these changes, we have supplemented the membership terms and conditions with a privacy policy. It describes in more detail how and why we save your personal data and which rights you have.
Yes! As a member of Lunds Karateklubb you can train in any class that suits your level. Ask a trainer if you have any questions!
