The course is not something your kids will want to do long term due to not enough one on one, poor attention to their needs, unable to advance at their own pace without feeling bad due to the negative attention. You can not get out of the contract which is expensive; there is extra cost for testing and belts $100 - $200 a month depending on how many kids; they do their billing through a collection agency (wonder why...NOT). The sparring is not supervised close enough and is out of control if your child is not agressive.
