Parking outside is charged and **not free on Sundays**. However, **free parking** is available 3 minutes away at Lytham Croft.
Transport links are excellent — metro and bus routes nearby, and **New Street Station is just 7–10 minutes walk** from the Budokan.
Full changing and shower facilities available — including lockers.
There are 2 dojos, each accommodating up to 20 people. Course capacity is therefore set at **maximum 40** to ensure space and quality instruction.
