No. However, since we are a non-profit organization and all of our instructors donate their time to teach, we frequently do fundraisers and ask for donations, but it is not a requirement of membership.

We do not offer student discounts at this time.

• Where can I get forms to join?

You can come by EBJI (address on top right of this page).

• How do I sign up?

If you or your child would like to try a lesson before signing up, we do offer a free trial lesson. If you are interested, please come to the dojo 10-15 minutes before the appropriate class time to fill out some paperwork and borrow a uniform for that day. No appointment is necessary.

*PLEASE NOTE* We are not currently offering trial lessons due to COVID. Please contact us below if you’re interested in joining.

For all other questions, please feel free to contact EBJI.

• What are your COVID protocols?

We have the front and back doors open to improve ventilation. In addition, we have 6 air purifiers running during and after class to improve air quality. Mats are disinfected after each practice and all high touch surface areas are wiped down routinely. All EBJI instructors have been fully vaccinated.
