FAQs
How much does it cost?
We believe self defense is a right, not a privilege. So, we strive to keep your cost low. However, the cost for lessons is dependent on which membership option you select. Scorpius Martial Arts offers several different membership options: full or part time, month to month, 6-month, and annual. We also offer discounts for qualified referrals.
Are there testing fees?
Yes, testing fees are dependent upon belt rank and due the day of the test. Testing occurs a few times per year, depending on rank. Students will receive a testing notification prior to test date.
Why Scorpius Martial Arts?
Scorpius Martial Arts specializes in traditional martial arts and practical self-defense training that focuses on the individual; Mind, Body, and Spirit. In addition to advocating for physical fitness, classes at Scorpius Martial Arts promote honesty, dedication, perseverance, respect for self and others, cooperation, and teamwork.
