Dojo Safety Checks

BASAA affiliated associations and clubs have an obligation to provide  "Duty of Care" for students.

A major part of this is to provide a safe training area. With this in mind we have produced a Pre & Post class safety check list. This list should be completed at each session with any problems acted on. Any member instructor who requires these forms e-mail shoshinkan@blueyonder.co.uk
