Martial Arts

For yoga, meditation, Pilates, qigong and tai chi classes, see the alternative exercise listings in the Exercise and Fitness section.

For martial arts classes:

• Testing, conducted on and off site for an additional fee, may be required to advance to the next martial arts level. Testing dates are announced at the start of class. • Uniforms are required for classes at all locations.

Uniforms may be purchased through any source and may be available from the instructor for a separate fee. Since specific uniforms may be mandatory for testing/advancement in certain classes, it is recommended that you check with the instructor before buying. • Separate fees may be charged for tournaments, protective gear and belts, if required for advancement.
