  Instructors

All instructors at our academy are trained to ensure that classes are safe, effective and fun.

Instructors and instructor assistants are all required to complete an intensive training.  Emphasis is put on encouragement and positive correction.

Our instructors are committed to teaching the physical skills of martial arts while applying attitude-shaping exercises aimed at bringing out the best character and physical potential in each student. Through weekly training, instructors advance their own martial art and educational knowledge to become even more effective teachers.

Instructors are required to maintain their personal level of martial arts knowledge. They are expected to take class on a regular basis and test at least twice a year
