Announcement: New Training Schedule

We have made an adjustment to the training schedule to seperate the COCC class and beginner class. This change will ensure that both classes will get the correct instruction and proper student to teacher ratios. It was a little late to change the COCC fall term schedule so we will work around it in the mean time by moving the regular beginner class temporarily for the Fall only (see below). Eventually by Winter, we will return to a progressive class schedule that will provide continuous training times for those whom attend more than one class.

The NEW training schedule will be as follows:

Fall Term 2010 – Starting September 21st - December 7th Tuesday & Thursday Classes

• 5-6 pm Regular Beginner Class
• 6-7 pm COCC Beginner /White Belt Class
• 7-8:30pm Intermediate/Advanced class as usual

Winter Term 2011 – Tuesday & Thursday Classes (This will hopefully be the final schedule)

• 4:45 pm-6 pm COCC Beginner /White Belt Class (Starting January 4^th)
• 6-7 pm Regular Beginner Class (Starting December 9^th)
• 7-8:30 pm Intermediate/Advanced class as usual

If you have any questions regarding this temporary change please feel free to direct your questions to Sempai Betty or Allan.
