Membership Dues Policy
Our dojo uses a third party billing service AAC. We do this to simplify the flow of funds and to separate the student teacher relationship from the financial arrangement. This allows us to deal with dues in a more effective way. It is our experience that this company’s system is easy and convenient for our members. Joining our dojo works as follows, the first month should be paid with a check along with our annual association (ASU) fee and insurance costs. A completed continuing membership form should be filled out at this time. There are no long term contracts required. Members pay dues at the beginning of each month. Annual ASU fees and insurance fees are collected at the beginning of each year and upon new membership.
The following are the Aikido monthly dues and fees. Please visit our Yoga page for complete information on Yoga class schedule and fees.
