ZOOM Class Timetable: 6th April-11th April

We hope you all well and staying safe by staying in!Our online classes have been a big hit last week with over 100 Red Tigers getting involved every single day. If you haven’t tried one of our ZOOM classes, what on Earth are you waiting for? Download the app and get involved! I can tell you how wonderfully uplifting it is to see your fellow students and Instructors, all in their gi’s suffering together!Of course we all need to keep up the training or it is gonna be HARD WORK when we all get back to normal.Huge thanks to everyone who has taken part so far.We’ve put together a timetable of over 40 classes with some special classes added this week. We've also added a couple more daytime classes as these are proving really popular.The majority of you can train with your usual Instructor and we have listened to your comments and split the grade groups even further so that we can offer better tailored tuition. If your Instructor isn’t teaching a lesson for your grade group, feel free to book on with them anyway.Here is the timetable for next week:

Once the class begins the instructor will mute all the participants and you will only be able to hear the Sensei. Payment for classesThere will be two options for payment, pay as you go or unlimited monthly pass.Online Classes will cost £3 or £30 a month for unlimited training. This is not per person, this is per household. If you have a standing order in place and haven’t cancelled it, please reduce your standing order to £30.Payment can be made to our RTK account:Account Name: Red Tiger Karate LTDAccount Number: 06954375Sort code: 09-01-50We will use this as an honesty box, if you cannot afford to pay at this time, please just book on and train anyway. We would prefer that you still take part than stay away because you are currently unable to afford it.

If you are getting involved for the first time: 
Contact us to book onto your chosen class.
Then, simply log on to  www.zoom.us or download the app from your smartphone or tablet. It is completely free of charge to sign up to an account and takes just a few minutes.
You can find the apps here under ‘Zoom Mobile Apps’:  https://zoom.us/download
It is called ‘ZOOM cloud meetings’
I will send you a link. If you have a computer or laptop, paste the link into your browser. If you are on a mobile device, click the link and the class will open in the app.
Training: 
Dust off your gi and your belt. We all wear full karate gi. The more space you have the better, we appreciate that some will have only a limited amount of room so you can just adapt your stances etc. to the space you have. Any training is better than sitting on the sofa!Also if you have a smart TV you may be able to ‘cast’ or ‘mirror’ your phone or tablet to your TV. (Not if Mum or Dad want to watch something else on the telly though!). The bigger the screen, the easier it will be to follow the Instructor.
You can arrive early to test out the app and get used to the screen. You will also be able to talk to each other but remember, everyone can hear everyone else until the class starts! The Instructor will then introduce themselves, mute the participants and begin the class.
If more than one of you are training together in the same house, you can use different devices in different rooms. For example, one on a phone, one on a tablet. You just have to sign in on both devices.
I would advise that you set up your account early and have a little practice with some of the features. You’ll also need to check how far away to put your device so you can still follow our instructions and be seen yourself. If we can only see your face, we can’t see your karate!
Do not be scared of the technology, it is all so simple and easy and if you need any help, I am here for your support.
There is a video you can watch if you follow this link that will give you an idea of what to expect.
It is something we will all have to get used to for the foreseeable future and I’m sure there might be a few technical glitches. Please stick with it, imagine a world with no karate! Now that would be a terrible thing!
