Information for Beginners Martial Arts in Perth

When you arrive you will be welcomed by our friendly WestStar Staff. You may want to arrive a few minutes early to your first lesson as we will get you to fill in some basic details. You will receive all the latest information on class times, membership plans and how to get the best value for your time and money.
