JOINING
The first step toward joining - both for adults and kids - is to have observed at least one full class. See FAQ for article on observing.
Please read, prospective students.
The process of joining consists of 1) signing the online new student / waiver form (below), 2) discussing ordering a uniform, and 3) meeting with the instructor about starting out details. Attending 2 times per week or more is recommended.
The new student registration form is paperless (Google form) and we ask that you sign the paper waiver in the dojo as well.

Adults: The instructor will discuss with you about expectations and check in during the beginning part of your time here. The initial commitment is 3 months and the uniform should be acquired near the beginning.
If you believe your initial commitment will be a concern (e.g., how frequently you expect to attend), please discuss with the instructor.
Kids: The beginning commitment is 1 month. Uniform is optional during this time.
After 1 month, we will meet with parents and decide together whether to go on to regular enrollment, at which time a uniform is needed.
