A. No. Our beginner packages will teach you everything you need to know within an easy to
follow progressive framework.

Q. What is a probationary member?
A. As a Home Office Approved Club we have a legal obligation to ensure that all BYSA members

issued confirming this and your membership will be upgraded to individual membership.
