FAQs
- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Check out the school you are thinking of joining. Go watch a class. Look at how the instructors interact with the students, and see if what they are teaching is something you believe to be effective. Look for aliveness in their drills/training. Real self defense training will have elements of combative training - but with safety in mind! If people are getting hurt, look for another place. Get a feel for how the students interact with each other - are they friendly and helpful? Finally, find out about cost. Many martial art places charge too much, or have absurd contracts. Don't sign a contract. You'll be locked in even if you don't like the place, and often, places like that use contracts for that reason.
