Upcoming Changes to Class Schedule

Posted on April 23, 2025

We are excited to share an important update to our class schedule that will help us create an even better learning experience for our students.

Beginning on Monday, April 28, we’re making a few changes to our Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday evening classes:

  • The current 6:00-6:45pm — White Belts through Orange Belt with Black Stripe (beginner to intermediate students) will continue to attend the same time slot on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
  • NEW TIME 6:45-7:45 — Green through Brown black stripe and Black Belts (intermediate to advanced students) Class will be extended to one full hour, ending at 7:45 PM.

These changes will make a big difference! We’ll have more room in each class, more personalized instruction, and more time to focus on learning new skills and refining the ones our students already know.

This is all part of our ongoing effort to make classes as fun, supportive, and effective as possible — and we couldn’t be more excited about what’s ahead.

As always, feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Have a great day!

See you in class,

Mr. Armstrong
