Any person thinking of taking classes is encouraged to watch a class before actually begining classes, this allows the potential student to see how the class is run and makes the first class a little less intimidating. There is no charge for watching a class.

PLEASE NOTE:We are a "Karate Club" and reserve the right to admit students to train with us. If a student has disciplinary problems or we feel they are simple not able to perform the techniques and/or become a hinderence to our instructors or become a distration to our program we will ask them to leave and they will not be permitted back to our school.

CLOTHING:

Karate Attire for class. We have always tried to maintain a martial arts traditional style with our attire. That being a tradition Martial Arts Uniform (Ghi) for all students approaching first promotion and solid color shirts and pants for beginners. This protocol has always been in effect at our club but I have not enforced it very well lately. I have started to see too many wild, slightly offensive and distracting logos and colors on some shirts so I thought I better start enforcing this again.

The following is the guidelines we will adhere to:

SOLID COLOR T-SHIRTS – Black, White or Grey only (No tank tops or sleeveless shirts for class. However you are allowed to wear tank tops and sleeveless shirts for sparring but must bring another shirt to change into after sparring session is completed). Only logos permitted on shirts would be small sports logo such as Nike, Adidas, or our club logo (Karate club t-shirts are available for $10.00 from Master Hardwick). SOLID COLOR SWEAT PANTS OR WORK OUT PANTS- Black, white or Grey only and no shorts. (Stripes are permitted as long as it is black, white or Grey in color). Beginners can wear sweat pants and T-shirt. T-shirts with club name & logo on them are available for $10.00. Students will be required to purchase a uniform & protective equipment before their first promotion. They can order this from the club at discount price when time comes.
