ABOUT OUR PROGRAMS
OUR YOUTH PROGRAMS AT A GLANCE
Age 7+ Black Belt Training is a rank / level specific training program which progresses youth participants through our pathway to black belt. Junior Magnus (Age 4-6) is our developmental readiness program designed to provide a great introduction for pre-k and k based students along with preparing students for Age 7+ black belt training in the future.
IMPORTANT AGE 7+ ADVICE
All Age 7+ programming features unlimited attendance enrollment - families utilize our flex schedule (see above).
Speaking from experience on attendance:
In order to see the best results I highly suggest all students attend class at a minimum of 6-8 times per month. Anything less than 5 per month generally leads to a confidence loss as the student falls behind in curriculum and feels a gradual distance from the training group. You can always attend more than 8 classes per month, that range is my suggestion for confidence development in this specific program at our school.
