Frequently Asked Questions
When are classes?
Classes are held every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Kids Classes are from 4:30p- 5:30p and Adult Classes are from 5:45p-6:45p.
Do I need to have previous knowledge in self defense?
No, you don't. We will teach you the self defense in our curriculum.
Can I come watch a class before jumping in?
Short answer: OF COURSE!
I highly suggest coming and watching a class before participating in one just so that you can get your mind around the idea and be comfortable. A lot of people try participating in the first class they attend and end up sitting out and watching for the majority of class and that is just fine. Do whatever makes you most comfortable.
What should I expect at my first class? What do I wear?
You should show up approximately 10 minutes early to your first class so that the instructors can walk you through our bow in and have you fill in any paperwork that is needed. You can also use this time to do a little bit of warm up and talk to other students. We will pair you up with another student to help you through the class so that you won't feel swamped or in over your head.
For your first couple of classes, you should wear athletic wear that does not restrict movement. After that you will receive a karate uniform, or gi. It is a two piece outfit designed to withstand the rigors of martial arts training. It is very functional and very comfortable. Male students should also invest in a cup and females in appropriate undergarments.
