Parent Housekeeping: 

1) We need your assistance in ensuring that your children are at class on time and picked up at the end of each session on time. This allows the classes to start in a timely manner.

2) Parents are responsible for transporting and supervising their children at all times while the child is not in class.

• 3) Parents are responsible to stay in the class during class time to oversee thier childrens behavior.  Any child being unsafe toward themselves or other children, are to be escorted by their parents to have a time out.
• 4) If a child is being disruptive to the lesson, they will be warned once; if they continue to be disruptive, parents are required to pull them from that lesson so their little one can have a time out. Once they calm down, they can resume their training.
• 5) At least two parents are required to help with holding training pads/shields, and for extra eyes to make sure kids are training safely at all times. Volunteering for this can be done at time of registration.

6) There are no refunds past the registration deadline unless a class must be canceled due to lack of student enrollment.
