FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

i aLWAYS wanted to study the martial arts, but I worry about possibly being injured...

Alpha Omega Martial Arts defines professionalism in martial arts instruction. We insist on:

Safety – Lessons are scientifically taught and safely learned. We use padded training targets and floors covered with thick resilient matting. Safety is #1!
Supervision – Each class is supervised and taught by trained educators. Each instructor has learned how to teach intelligently and effectively to bring out your best. We’re here for you!
Structure – Each lesson follows a carefully designed syllabus of progressive training. You will never be pushed beyond the limits of movement or exertion appropriate for your age, experience, and condition
Dignity – No one is expected to start as a finished product. Each student is encouraged to progress at his or her own pace. Instructors are friendly guides who assist students to find their own way along the martial path. Our training is so enjoyable that many students tell us their class is the high point of the day.

Do your students have to compete and beat others to advance?

No. As a self-defense school, we train for situations very different from a contest ring. Our goal is not to defeat competitors, but to develop the protector skills to establish peace when others might choose violence or bullying. Combat Hapkido trained teachers in padded armor simulate assaults to let students test themselves under pressure. We teach the kinds of awareness, attitudes, and techniques you need to end a fight with a larger attacker, or several attackers, or an armed attacker, and then get to safety – very different from skills needed to win a prize in a fighting contest.

​If my child learns self-defense techniques , won't he be tempted to use his skill as a bully himself?

That is a possibility in a poor quality school run by a questionable instructor. That’s why it is so important to enroll your child in our professional school with our caring role-model teachers. We emphasize the beauty and power of being a protector instead of a predator. We show children how to help others feel good. We teach our children why some kids choose bullying as their way to get attention and feel important. Experience has shown that the more skilled the true martial artist, the less likely they will jump to physical solutions. They win just by carrying themselves like a winner.

Maybe we should enroll our child in a cheaper program to see if they like martial arts , and transfer to Alpha Omega martial arts later if the kids want to train for mastery?

A discount program run by hobbyists is likely to be poorly designed and unskillfully presented. It will quickly drain your child’s enthusiasm. Naturally, they will want to quit. You will lose the opportunity for your child to get the real and lasting benefits of authentic martial arts empowerment. Start with the best school right from the beginning.

why do we have to commit to a program? can we just pay by the class as long as we like it?

The benefits of martial arts training are cumulative. It takes time to develop physically, evolve emotionally, and transform into a stronger person. Like weight training to build strength, dieting for a healthier physique, or learning a new language, it takes time before results show up. Making a judgment as to progress after only a few sessions would not be fair. It is important to make up your mind from the beginning that you are going to complete the program to receive the benefits you seek.

yes but my child has a habit of getting bored and quitting things after doing them for a while?

Then right now is the perfect time to teach your child the new habit of planning for success and sticking to that promise. We’ll help you make that needed transition in your child’s life.
