Free Introductory Program
Hawkesbury Martial Arts offers a unique free introductory program, which will give you an idea of what you will be doing in our studio. This program consists of two lessons. During the first lesson you will be introduced to our instructors and given a tour of our studio and facilities. We then begin your first class, which is a private lesson (one on one). You will learn basic karate philosophy and etiquette; you will then learn some basic warm up and stretching exercises that you will be doing in your regular classes. We will also show you some basic self-defence that you can use immediately.
This will give you an idea of how a class starts, what you will be doing in a regular class and how a class ends. This class will last approximately 30 minutes and then you will be scheduled in for your second class, which will be a regular class with other beginners just like yourself, adults with adults and children with children.
In your second lesson you will be shown a few more stretching and warm up exercises. You will learn the basic beginner moves and combinations of Budokan Karate. This class will give you the opportunity to experience the class atmosphere and become more familiar and comfortable with your instructors, fellow students and the studio.
During this introductory program we evaluate all of our potential students on attitude, confidence, desire, reaction, balance, flexibility, co-ordination and goals. Our program director will then recommend a membership option based upon our evaluation and then fit it to your budget on an individual basis.
