Dutch Combat Sports Authority certification
AKHI Gym is certified by the Dutch Combat Sports Authority (Vechtsport Autoriteit) and meets all requirements for health, safety and conduct.
Safe training for everyone
AKHI Gym strives for a safe environment where everyone can perform at their own level — social, safe and respectful. We do everything we can to prevent unwanted behaviour such as bullying, discrimination, sexually transgressive behaviour and sexual harassment.
If you do experience this, speak up — ideally to the person showing the behaviour. If that doesn't work or you don't dare, tell someone you trust, at home or at the gym. You can always discuss it with us in confidence; together we'll find a suitable solution.
