I enjoy the new skills I’ve learned and
the people I’ve met after school.
I wish I could do this instead of P.E!

$195 per term. No uniform or extra costs are required! 

Q. Does I have to purchase a uniform to join the Lions Class?

A. No. The uniform is optional. All they need is to wear comfortable, loose fitting clothing that they would usually wear to PE or to play sports.

Q. Is regular attendance for the sessions required?

A. Although not compulsory, regular attendance is of high importance as this will instill the concepts of discipline and commitment in the child.

Q. Will I be going through examinations as part of the Lions Class?

A. Yes. Every so often ‘gradings’ will take place whereby students are tested on their knowledge acquired so far and will be given the subsequent belt representing their level. This will provide a goal-oriented setting where Colts Clubs students can train with more determination to achieve and enhance their skills. We find even young children of this age truly excel when given goals in this way.

Q. Can I stay to watch the adults train?

A. Yes of course, we have many people who enjoy watching other classes and picking up on tips that way too. 

Q. Who will be teaching me?

A. Lions Class is taught by Academy Owner Damian Smith, being an accomplished martial arts teacher and qualified black belt.

Q. What will assure me that my I will be safe?

A. Damian Smith is responsible for teaching you personally, and has built the Academy to over 150 students by building sessions based specifically on each students development needs and always keeping a safety-first attitude in whatever they do. This reduces the risk for both acute and chronic injuries. Moreover, in the unlikely event that you hurt yourself, a qualified first-aider will always be present.
