This course is instructed by Nathan Rogers.
Classes will run Mondays 7:30 pm - 8:30 pm., Sept 2 - Oct 21
Each class will feature simple elements that beginners can pick up easily and safely so they can start having fun right away.
You will not need to come to every class to get involved.
Classes will provide opportunities for personal development as well as paired teamwork to create simple choreography.
One of the training games we can play is called “Jedi Frisbee”. You can search for that on Facebook to see more.
Open sparring will be available for advanced students and not until after week three
Physical contact between participants will be carefully limited throughout to ensure safety.
As with all martial arts, a gentle approach to teaching yields a patient and calm student.
