Programs & Class Schedule
Classes are available to tiny tots (4 – 6), youth (7 – 14), and adults (15 and over). Within age groups classes are further filtered by competency (beginner, intermediate, and advanced). No contracts are required and there are multi family member discounts available.
Classes last on average 60 minutes, except for the tiny tots which are 45 minutes. More spirited classes might last a little longer. Students receive daily feedback on their progress and areas needing improvement. Students above the rank of yellow belt are required to participate in at least one tournament a year to further test their competency, to meet practitioners outside of their dojo, to be exposed to other styles of martial arts, and to build their self esteem.
The class structure is comprised of three core components:
Physical Fitness – running, jumping jacks, pushups, situps, squats, toe touches, and stretching
Coordination Drills – kicking, punching, blocking, kata (prearranged sequence of movements that demonstrate kicking, punching, blocking, etc.)
