instructors
If you are seeking a good martial arts instructor, these are some things to consider while conducting your search.
- Ask to watch a class or try a class for free.
- Find out how long the chief instructor has been practicing the art.
- Make sure that the feel of the school’s atmosphere and level of discipline is what you are looking for.
- Observe how detailed the instructor’s knowledge of the techniques are and how well he conveys that knowledge to the students. Is the instruction practical as well as technical?
- Make sure this school has the same aim you are looking to achieve, be it learning martial arts, getting in shape, making friends, or learning the art of coordinating you mind, body and spirit.
- Ask questions and talk to other students about their experiences.
