Fees Schedule

Our dojo is a volunteer operation, nobody is making a living teaching martial arts! We do it because we love it. Student fees are collected to pay rent, keep the lights on, and cover related operational costs.

Monthly fees are broken into primary and secondary disciplines: Karate or Aikido is a primary study.

  • The base fee for primary classes is $85 / month. Members can attend all classes for that discipline.

If the student participates in a secondary discipline, an additional fee of $20 is added. Examples:

  • A Karate student also takes Kobudo classes: $85 + $20 = $105 monthly fees.

  • An Aikido student also takes Karate and Kobudo classes: $85 + $20 + $20 = $125 monthly fees.
