Ans: Ages 8 to adult, this is a great opportunity to participate with your children.

4. Do we have to purchase a uniform (gi) right away?

Ans: No. Once the student has learned the requirements for the Advanced White belt and the Instructor has determined that they are ready to test, then a gi will be necessary.

5. When does the program run?

Ans: All year. The program runs in 5 sessions, each about 7 weeks long. What a great way to cross train and stay fit all year!!

6. What are the patches all about?

Ans: MPKA patches are an extra incentive that can be earned only by those students showing excellence in various categories. They must be earned with desire. These awards have nothing to do with your rank. You will receive your set of 4 uniform patches when you have been promoted to Advanced White.

7. Is there a textbook available?

Ans: Yes. It covers White Belt up to Blue Belt. It is called the beginners manual, (or the Red Book), and may be purchased for $25.00. See your instructor.
