Q & A
What type of martial arts do you teach?
We teach a combination of several different types. The reason is simple. Every type of martial art has a weakness, we try to offset that weakness with the strength of a different type.

What if I have a special need?
We have had students that were legally blind, have asthma, have diabetes and several other challenges. But to us, that is all it is. We ask that the your doctor gives the OK then we develop a customized way for you to get the most out of your martial arts experience.

How much are your classes?
We offer several different options and several different price ranges. We also offer, educator, first responder and additional family member discounts.

Do you wear the traditional uniform (GI)?
Only our Youth Martial classes wear traditional uniforms. Our adults wear sweat pants and our school T-Shirt.

How many classes can I take?
Once you have signed up with us, you are free to take any of our classes that you would like.

What if my child's grades start slipping in school?
Grades are very important to us. We have a form for you to fill out so that we may see a copy of all report cards and progress reports. We explain to your child when they first start with us that their education is very important and if their grades slip that they will be put on probation. If they do not bring them up then they can not participate in class until their grades are brought back up.

How long will it take me to get my Black Belt?
If you try real hard you can reach Black Belt in 3-4 years. However, if belts are not important to you we have no problem with that.

What else does your school do?
We go on camping trips twice a year. Once in the fall and once in the spring. We leave on a Friday afternoon and return on Sunday afternoon. And yes parents are invited to come.
