Enrollment is current and ongoing.
Students must be 18 years of age. 15-17 of age accepted as students with parent/guardian permission.
The initial investment is only $250. This covers the deposit and your first training session.
After the first session, it's only $20/per session for either Tuesday or Thursday sessions (6pm-9pm).
Initial Assessment
These programs requires a high level of callisthenic and aerobic/anaerobic exercises. Students are required to disclose any medical condition or medical history that may be in conflict with our routines. In rare cases, a doctor’s clearance may be required.
Each new student will undergo an initial assessment to determine their level of overall conditioning, agility, and in-ring knowledge.
Students who pass the initial assessment will be assigned to the Beginner or Advanced Program.
Some students may be assigned to a conditioning program prior to starting in-ring instruction.
In-Ring Training
Our co-ed classes for both beginners and advanced students take place every Tuesday and Thursday nights from 6pm-9pm. Your up-front tuition is a non-refundable deposit of $250 which also includes your first training session. Then, it’s only $20/per Tuesday or Thursday night session.
Training for beginners consists of overall conditioning and basic in-ring movements (running the ropes, bumps, ring awareness, footwork, basic holds, basic sequences and basic ring psychology).
