National standards for student/teacher ratios maintain that for beginners, this should be 10:1, for those with experience, 15:1. We consistently stay way above these guidelines ensuring that you or your child will receive the attention needed to realize the benefits you want.

What equipment will I need to purchase?
Upon enrolling into our test trial program, you or your child will receive a uniform at no additional charge!
After several months as you or your child advances they will be encouraged to participate in light sparring sessions as part of their lessons. Safety gear is required, so this must be purchased for an additional fee.
