FAQs
I don't have much time; what is the commitment required to progress at an average pace?
Just 60 minutes, twice a week, will produce exceptional results. We want to make sure you don't have to give up all your free time to benefit from our programs. If the class schedule conflicts with work hours, individual lessons are always an excellent alternative to speed up your learning process.
How old does my child have to be to start training?
We recommend that children start at four years old. However, no two kids are the same; there can be differences in coordination and maturity. We are willing to evaluate children younger than four.
Will my child have a hard time if they aren't athletic?
Often children who don't find success in team sports come to Martial Arts, and they love it! That's because, with martial arts, you go at your own pace. Team sports may harm the self-esteem of children who aren't very athletic. When they don't perform well, other kids can be pretty mean, affecting their self-esteem. But with Martial Arts, they can't let anyone down. Our students are never asked to do things beyond their capacity. Some kids learn quicker than others, but those who advance quickly are not valued more than the kids who move slowly. Everyone is greatly encouraged, regardless of their athletic level, and praised for achieving things they couldn't before.
Is there any contact in your Muay Thai classes?
Yes, there is contact in our Muay Thai program through warm-up drills, partner drills, and sparring (when you are technically eligible to do so). Although, you don't have to participate in any sparring activity unless you choose to test your skills, which we will always recommend. Sparring is a lot of fun but completely optional. In the classes, you will learn to hold pads for your training partners and practice defensive and offensive striking combinations with your hands, feet, elbows, and knees.
How often should I attend classes so I don't overdo it initially?
If you have never done any sports before, we recommend starting your training with two classes a week for the first few months. This will ensure your body gets used to the exercises and repetitions we practice throughout the class. As a reminder, private lessons are also a great way to learn the fundamentals and ease you into the group classes.
