FAQs

I have an injury/health concern, can I still train?

Yes! We take pride in our inclusive community and capacity to work with students who may have injuries or other physical issues. We do not think you need to be an athlete to have a positive and enriching martial arts experience. We do recommend checking with your doctor before beginning training if you have concerns.

What do I need for gear?

We'll provide a gi (training uniform) for new students for free with their first membership payment. Training gloves and shin guards are recommended. We do carry equipment at the school for students to use including weapons, gloves, and pads.

I can only train temporarily or for a short time, is that okay?

Absolutely. We understand that people have lives! We offer memberships that don't require contracts, and additionally can provide private training at a time that works for you.

How long will it take to earn a black belt?

This varies. We consider the rank of black belt in our school a serious endorsement that requires focused, long term study. For students that attend regularly and are receptive to coaching, the average time to black belt is 5-6 years. If you are not training with the explicit goal of earning black belt, that is okay; we just want to be transparent about expectations.

Will it carry over?

While students of other martial arts will find some similarities in techniques, we have found that students coming from other backgrounds find a fresh experience in our curriculum. We enjoy working with students with previous experience and only ask that you are respectful and open to instruction.

More info can be found on the FAQ page of our website.
