Thinking about zoom classes? Here's our Virtual Karate FAQ
How are you teaching karate classes online?
We are using Zoom to run our classes while the dojo isn't available. To maintain security we aren't posting the class links, but are emailing them to students, along with the class password.
Am I able to gain new belt levels in an online program?
Yes! We will be running belt promotions while training online, so you don’t need to worry about missing out on learning new material.
What do I need to do at home to get ready for a class?
- Clear a space for class – make sure any family pets that may get underfoot are safely kept away during class.
- Having a parent or grandparent available to help coach during the class is a great help to younger and lower belt students!
- If there is a drill with punching or kicking the adult helper could hold a pillow, yoga mat, or punching pad (if you have one at home) for the student.
- Wear your uniform - this will help you get into your karate mindset.*
*If you're a new student and don't have a uniform yet, wear gym clothes that you can move comfortably in.
