North Wales Performance Weekend

Application Form

We are now accepting applications for our next North Wales Performance Weekend, taking place in July 2026 at Hajime Hiro Dojo.

This is not a standard training camp.

This is a performance focused environment, designed for athletes who are actively competing and looking to push towards regional, national, and international level.

Who This Is For

  • Athletes currently competing (or preparing to compete)

  • Those committed to improving performance, not just participation

  • Individuals ready to train with intent, focus, and high standards

Selection Process

Due to limited capacity, submission of this form does not guarantee a place.

Athletes will be selected to ensure:

  • A high-performance training environment

  • The right balance of ability and experience

  • A group that will challenge and elevate each other

We are not simply looking for the “best” athletes, we are looking for those with:

  • Intent

  • Work ethic

  • A clear drive to improve
