We've restored your previous application

This application has been restored from your last change, so you don't need to start again. You may, however, start afresh if you'd like.

Joining Our Association

You’re just a few moments away from joining one of the UK’s leading martial arts associations. There’s just a short application form to gather a few key details, and you can configure your membership to fit your needs exactly. The whole process is completely secure.

Are you completing this application for yourself, or on behalf of someone else?

It's For Me It's For Somebody Else

That’s fine. We just need a few details on you first.

A little bit on you first.

We just need a little bit of information on you first, to understand your relationship to the applicant.

First Name

Last Name

What's your relationship to the applicant?*

The applicant is my partner, friend or family member

The applicant is my sensei or coach

None of the above but I'm responsible for doing this within our club

The APPLICANT's Full Name*

Name

APPLICANT's E-Mail*

Email Address

APPLICANT's Date Of Birth*

APPLICANT's Address*

Street Number & Name

Town / City

Postal Code

From here on out, the rest of the application should be completed as if you’re the applicant. Please ensure you have the applicant’s permission to complete this form, and especially to sign off any insurances or declarations on their behalf.

What’s Your Background?

We just need a couple of key details on your martial arts background so we can set up your membership. Don’t worry, this won’t affect any pricing.

What styles do you teach?*

What grades do you currently hold to teach these styles?*

Don’t forget, you’ll need to be able to provide proof of grade before your membership can be issued. You don’t need to provide this today – our bespoke system allows you to upload copies, photographs, scans or digital documentation at any point in the future, but it will be required before your membership (and, if applicable) insurance commence.

We’ll accept some additional styles by proxy (for example, if you have a 1st Dan in Karate we’re happy for you to also list Self Defence as a discipline) but if you select multiple styles that are not variations of the same (for example, Kickboxing and Krav Maga) you’ll need to present grades in both.

What's your date of birth?*

Select Date ×

What email address should we use for you?*

We'll use this by default to send important confirmations, such as login details or your welcome e-mail. You can change this at a later point, if needed.

Email Address

Your full name, as it should be shown on certification*

We'll use this spelling on any official documentation. Please ensure it is your legal name. You don't need to include middle names if you do not commonly do so - first and surname is fine.

Select Your Membership Preferences

Because every club is different, we offer you the opportunity to configure your membership exactly as you need it. Leave out the extras you don’t need to save money, and include resources or tools you think are important for a discounted rate.

PLEASE NOTE: None of these plans include instructor insurance, but you can add it to your membership choice on the next page.

You’re under no obligation to take out any BMABA insurance with your membership, but it is available should you wish to make the most of it.

Instructor Insurance

Our instructor insurance is provided via our Association Group Cover policy and is combined with your membership. Because of the size of our association, we can access cover at bulk pricing and in turn pass on these excellent savings to you.

Would you like to add instructor insurance to your membership?

NO YES

Let’s configure your insurance…

Remember, insurance is provided via our group cover policy and is combined into your BMABA instructor membership. You won’t get charged any extra for any of the options you select below, so please ensure you’re happy everything is set up properly to provide the necessary cover.

Would you like to endorse any weapons to the policy?

No, this isn't required. Yes, let me endorse weapons.

What weapons do you need endorsing?*

No live blades are permitted at any time. Cover is for demonstration and practice purposes only. You are expected to ensure all weapon usage is sensible, safe and properly risk assessed at all times.

All instructor insurance is bound by our group cover policy's general wording, limitations and exclusions, which can be confirmed below. Please confirm you understand the policy terms, and are happy to be bound by these for cover to be effective.

Terms Of Instructor Insurance

We have an entire section of our main website dedicated to instructor insurance. It tells you more about the insurance cover we can provide with membership, the documentation you’ll receive, how cover works, what the conditions are and lots of other important information.

Please make sure you take a look at this section BEFORE you sign up with instructor insurance today. The link below will open in a new window so you won’t loose your place.

Terms Of Instructor Insurance

Our instructor insurance is specially arranged and managed to offer you tailored martial arts instructor cover which runs with membership. In order to obtain competitive prices from our specialist underwriters and brokers, and to protect all of our other members who have instructor insurance under our association’s group cover policy we insist on a couple of key requirements before we can offer you instructor insurance. Please take a look at the following conditions to ensure you’re OK to continue;

If appropriate, you must hold a valid and acceptable DBS (Disclosure Barring Service) check (or equivalent) conducted to the appropriate level.

You must have suitable first aid training and, if required, be able to demonstrate proof of this training

We can provide cover for the use of weapons during classes, provided there are no live blades used. All training weapons must be in a good state of repair, and checked prior to use. A risk assessment must be in place for the use of all weapons and training involving weapons and only relevant weapons are to be used in line with the qualifications or experience held by the instructor

You must follow association guidelines and regulations in relation to conduct, standards and eligibility criteria. There will be certain regulations, conditions or conditions to cover based upon the professional elements we would expect all members to hold – for example, we may require you to undertake a specific risk assessment if your style includes sparring, or we may issue guidance on instructor to student ratios etc. Any association or insurance specific regulations / requirements will be clearly visible from the member’s area once you’re signed up.

You must be able to agree to our association’s terms and conditions, and conditions of membership, which are viewable at checkout or from bmaba.org/legal.

You must ensure that suitable safety equipment is used at all times during lessons, classes and events and a fire risk assessment must be conducted on all premises used for lessons/events and fire evacuation procedures made clear. There must always be a qualified, DBS checked (where required), first aid trained BMABA instructor in the club at all times.

Please ensure you’ve seen the policy documentation (available from the above link) and understand the policy’s cover in full before proceeding. We’re on hand to help if you have questions.

Student Insurance

Registering and insuring your students with our association is completely optional, and if you wish, you can of course register them on an ‘as and when’ basis once your registration is active. If, however, you’d like to register them in bulk now we’re happy to offer a reduction against the standard price.

Would you like to register and insure any students with your membership now?

NO YES

Don’t worry – you never have to register any students with us if you don’t wish. If you do, you can register them on an ad hoc ‘as and when’ basis at any point once your membership commences.

How many students would you like to register?*

All membership options include £2,000,000 Student Public Liability, BMABA student membership and licensing, access to our student liaison service, full grade ratification as well as analytics for the instructor, plus more.

You’re accessing this student insurance combined with membership for £3 per student, per year as opposed to the usual £5 per student, per year.

We’ll collect your student details from you after your membership is issued, so you don’t need to provide any of this information today.

£ 0 Total All-In Annual Membership & Insurance Costs

Finishing Touches

You’re all set and ready to go, we just need a few final things to tie this up and you’re ready to go.

Communication Preferences

You’re always in control of your data with the BMABA. We’re an association, so we’re built on an open and honest community. We’d really appreciate the chance to keep in touch with you, but you’re of course always in control of your communication preferences.

How can we keep in touch with you?

Monthly Instructor's Newsletter

No more than once a month, to keep you updated on really important updates or new free membership benefits.

Unsubscribed Subscribed

New Features Newsletter

Sent no more than twice a month (and usually less), to keep you updated on new membership features you can enjoy.

Unsubscribed Subscribed

Director's Newsletter

Sent twice annually, Giovanni's summary e-mail updates you on key matters relating to the association, including where the organisation is going in the coming six months.

Unsubscribed Subscribed

Don’t worry, you’ll always receive transactional e-mails (for example, when your membership is up for renewal, you purchase something in our store, or have a new message from a fellow member in the community).

Would you like important confirmations by text (SMS)?

No Yes

What mobile should we send notifications to?*

You'll only ever receive a text to confirm important notifications - such as insurance being activated, or your membership expiring. It's sent just to make sure you know we've contacted you, encase our e-mail ends up in the junk folder by mistake!

Mobile No.

Your application is subject to our membership terms and conditions.*

I agree that I have read the membership terms and conditions, and am happy to agree to them

Membership Terms & Conditions

Any memberships will only commence upon sufficient proof of grade(s) for all discipline(s) listed. You will be able to provide this at your leisure after completing the sign up process today but please do be aware that until your proof of grade has been seen and accepted, membership (and, if included, insurance) will not be active.

You declare that you do not have any criminal convictions, are aged 18 years of age or older, have not been expelled from any other martial arts or combat organisations and that you are in agreement with our terms and conditions, as well as our general conditions of membership and policy which is primarily designed to protect our existing members.

If you have opted to obtain insurance with membership today, cover will NOT commence until your membership commences. You agree that you understand the scope of cover and policy wording, as made available via our website and agree to the insurance provisions guidelines and exclusions. If you have any questions about the extent, type or exclusions of cover please contact us before assuming protection under the group cover policy.

If you request a refund before your membership is issued (and, if relevant, insurance is assigned) we will be happy to refund you in full for any fees paid. As soon as membership and/or insurance is issued fees are strictly non-refundable as we incur costs when issuing your documentation.

If you’ve opted for a Pay monthly membership it is NOT a finance product, but as we will incur costs, we will ask you to pay the remaining balance of your membership early should you cancel, or fail to make the regular payments expected. This is designed to help us cover the costs we will incur if you fail to complete the 12 months payment cycle. If you have any difficulties making payment, please speak with our team and we will assist.

Memberships typically take around 4-12 working days to complete, but we can complete this sooner if you need access to documentation or insurance before this date – please speak with our team after submitting your application. This timeline is subject to receiving proof of grade without delay.

Why Us?

Please help us understand why you’ve chosen to join us. It’s invaluable guidance that helps us continue to improve the association.

This groundbreaking research will allow us to build anonymous data about the financial background of martial arts instructors, to demonstrate the need for more investment in martial arts.
