One more week to get membership!

You can come to one of the following trainings to purchase yours:
- Monday, 6:30-8:30pm, Nest - Room 2311
- Friday, 5-7pm, Life Building - Room 5

If you intend to train on Monday, not just drop by to purchase your membership, please fill out the following form: https://forms.gle/ZkLNgHi1PF2JMEnZ9. Since this is a smaller room, we have a cap on class size for COVID safety; spots are first come, first serve. (We will personally notify anyone who attempts to sign up after spots have filled.)

By filling out this form, you are indicating your intent to attend the Monday, September 20th krav maga training. If your plans to attend change, please let us know as soon as possible so we can inform someone on the wait list!

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we will be enforcing the BC Proof of Vaccine requirements that take effect September 13th, 2021 at our trainings.

Therefore, in order to enter a UBC Krav Maga training, you will need to present your club membership card, a form of government ID, and the following:
– September 13th through September 26th – B.C. vaccine card or paper (i.e. immunization record) proof of vaccination from clinic showing at least one dose of an approved COVID-19 vaccine
– September 27th through October 23rd – B.C. vaccine card showing at least one dose of an approved COVID-19 vaccine
– October 24th onward – B.C. vaccine card showing two doses of an approved COVID-19 vaccine, with the second dose taking place at least 7 days prior to entry

Furthermore, we will be requiring everyone in attendance to wear facemasks (covering both nose and mouth).

Thank you for working with us to help keep everyone safe!

Hello! We here at UBC Krav Maga & Advanced Self-Defence are excited to update you on the status of our club!

--
CLUB STRUCTURE
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has reduced the capacity of both our executive and instructor teams. Due to these limitations, we will not be publicizing our club the way we previously did. Despite this, we are happy to welcome both returning and new members to our club! Our membership price this year will be set at $1/year for UBC students and $1.50/year for non-UBC students.

CLASS STRUCTURE
We will be holding in-person training on campus three times per week: Monday, Wednesday, and Friday evenings. Our full schedule will be released to members. We will start training the week of September 13th in the Life Building and the Nest.

Given our changes in instructor and executive capacities, we will not be holding the formal, levels-based classes we used to hold. We will hold an instructor-taught all-levels class (Mondays), an advanced open mat with an instructor regularly available (Wednesdays), and an all-levels open mat overseen by advanced students (Fridays).

All classes will be held in compliance with UBC policy and public health guidelines that apply to our club's activities. We will detail these provincial guidelines for our members in a later post.

HOW TO JOIN / CONTACT US
Once you have joined our club, you will be eligible to attend any of our classes and any other club events we hold. You can join our club in one of two ways:
1. Contact us by Facebook messenger, email, or Instagram DM and express your desire to purchase membership. We will set up a time where you can meet with one of our executives and set up your membership.
2. Drop by one of our trainings. An executive will always be present at training and can set up your membership.

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns about the information in this statement, our plans for the year, or the club overall, please feel free to reach out to us! You can get in touch through this page, our Instagram (), or our email ([email protected]).

Okay, that's all for now! Thank you for your time in reading through these updates, and we look forward to training with you soon. Whatever the resumption of in-person activity entails for you, as we say here at UBC Krav Maga: may you walk in peace.

Unfortunately, today’s free week class will be cancelled due to the air quality and a problem with the room booking. We are hopeful that the weather conditions will clear up by Thursday and we can hold our 5 pm class then; if not, we will postpone our free week until next Tuesday the 22nd and Thursday the 24th. We do not anticipate further room booking problems that will lead to future cancellations, and we apologise for the inconvenience.
We are still attempting to set up streaming classes and updates will follow in the coming weeks!

We're hosting our first free classes! Want to know what Krav is about, or what it might look like this year? This is your chance!

Free classes will be Sept 15 and 22nd at 6:15-7:15 PST and 17th and 24th at 5-6:30 at the new field sandwiched between the NEST, the LIFE building, and the bus loop. If the weather is uncooperative, we will move indoors, but please meet outside on the field!
Before showing up, please sign up to reserve your place (http://cglink.me/s35277) and also sign our COVID-19 waiver (http://cglink.me/s35270).

We hope to see you there!
