All
Level 1 Instructors are fully Insured, St John First Aid trained
and C.R.B. checked every 2 years.
INSTRUCTOR QUALITIES
It is important that you are aware of the Qualities that ALL Martial Arts Instructors
should have. This is dealt with by way of what are known as "The 5 Documents". If an Instructor cannot produce ALL of these
when asked then you should reconsider your options.
Some may not carry these all of the time, but should be able to produce
them by the next lesson if requested to do so.
1. A Black Belt in grade and no less. This
belt will be solid in colour throughout, black and red block (5th Dan), or white & red block (6th Dan) and awarded by
a known and traceable source. They will usually be registered with a Martial Arts Group and be listed on a data base. If not
ask for the contact details to allow you to check.
2. Evidence of training as an Instructor due to the fact that a Black Belt does not in
any way constitute a qualification to teach. This training should include Health & Safety, Risk Assessments and Child
Protection.
3. Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) Enhanced Disclosure checked every 2 years to ensure suitability
to teach Children. Please note Police Officers are exempt from this.
4. First Aid Certificate from a Health &
Safety Executive (HSE) approved training provider such as St John, Red Cross etc...
5. Indemnity Insurance. The certificate should be the original from the Broker NOT one printed
on a Martial Arts Group letter head, unless that Group is a registered Broker themselves.
