Getting started is really easy.
First, sign up to our free trial. Whether it be for your child or yourself, guests are welcomed into the academy by our friendly staff and introduced to the professor or coach running the session. Next, you will be shown the training and changing areas, then provided with a clean uniform ready for the class.
Classes start with students lining up by rank with a brief introduction and overview from the class lead, followed by a group warm-up. Next techniques are demonstrated and practiced with an experienced partner allowing plenty of time to ask questions and develop familiarity with techniques. After this, there is a safe yet challenging sparring portion including positional rounds or full sparring dependent on the session you attend. Classes end with a group cool down and once again lining up by rank to a closing statement from the professor or coach.
