How much do lessons cost?

Please contact one of our staff to discuss pricing. Prices vary, depending on programs, weekly attendance, family rates, and other variables.

I am a beginner, when can I start?

We wouldn't be in business if we couldn't accomodate the beginner! 99% of all new members have never studied the martial arts. We are ready to accomodate a beginner in any one of our classes. On any given day, you need only shop up to start training!

I'm out of shape, will this affect my ability to train?

No. In fact, it's our job to help you get in shape. Often, someone will will say they need to lift weights or run before they can begin training. This is ridiculous! the best way to get in shape and optimize your martial arts performance is to come in and JUST DO IT! The martial arts is an athletic activity that improves by doing more of that activity.

How long will it take me to earn a blackbelt?

The time varies according to each indvidual's physical and mental abilities. The most important quality necessary for attaining a blackbelt is consistency. If a member consistently comes to class twice weekly, for three years, he or she can reasonably expect to earn a blackbelt.
