My kickboxing was £3.50 for two hours and free when I did some teaching.
Best class ever and something I really miss about Bristol.

That's very fortunate - venue hire is my club's biggest expense by far.

We were able to get a lottery grant to cover a whole load of new mats at the beginning of the year, which was great. If anyone's in a simlilar position (ie. needing sports equipment that will be used by and will benefit many people), check the "Awards for All" scheme; it's not too difficult to apply and the worst that can happen is that they say no.

We do also have similar insurance costs - about £20 for the year - and students need to buy their own Gi once they decide they'll want to grade. That's about £30, the grading itself is about £15, and we have occasional special courses which generally last between 4 and 6 hours and are £10-£15.
