Our Programs & Classes
Students and enthusiasts of Martial Arts have many reasons for their interest in this and other martial art styles. Some are drawn to the physical fitness and weight-loss aspects of training. Others seek to add discipline and self control to their lives. While still others are concerned about safety and self-defense.
Whether you are interested in our programs for mental or physical well being, BLACK DRAGON MARTIAL ARTS offers a number of programs that will fit your developmental needs and your busy schedule as well.
Before & After School Achievement Martial Arts Program
This is a program for children 5+ years of age who usually stay after school in an ESP (Extended School Program)or need a place to stay and a ride in the morning before school starts. Our teachers will pick the children up from their different schools and they will spend the afternoon finishing homework, eating a snack and taking lessons in martial arts. For a fee comparable to the esp program, your child will actually be learning valuable life skills and finishing school work, so you can have more quality time at home with your family. Our Achievement Program helps to insure your child is well rounded in and out of the martial arts school by keeping up with their grades and outside activities. Good grades are given achievement patches so students can show off their skills. Please call to find out if your school can be added to the list. We offer multiple child discounts.

With field trips every week (baseball games, science museum visits, swimming, bowling and many other activities) , lunches at the park (kids bring their own lunches except for major field trip days)and lots of fun, fun fun, we are the summer camp priced just right for your children. We offer multiple child discounts. Please call for daily schedules and a list of field trips for the summer.
All Ages
Our classes are geared for all ages. Adults and children can participate at the same time. Families or individuals can attend. What other sport can you play with your child? Usually you are left on the side lines or coaching. Fun for the whole family!
Classes for Special Needs
We have children and adults who have special needs, but still want to participate in martial arts. We find that the students have an easier time learning when they are included in the regular classes. We currently have students with vision and hearing problems, Autisim and Asberger's Autism.
Adult/Home School Daytime Classes
Classes are Wednesdays and Fridays from 10:00 p.m. -11:00 a.m.
Black Belt Club
This is a high impact club that is by "invitation only". This club is for the most serious of students. Students will be informed when they are ready to participate in the program. Black Belt Club members will get special belts, patches for their uniforms, extra classes and seminars, and specials on gear at the school. It is a priveleged club that we hope all of our students will become members of in the future.
Masters Club
Masters Club is designed for advanced belts (red and above) who desire further training. It will introduce Weapons, Hapkido and Judo and other styles as a way to further the martial art experience.
Leadership Teams
Leadership Teams will be our most outstanding students who also have a desire to be instructors at the school. Members will attend meetings and help around the school as they advance in their levels of education. Kids and Adults will be invited to join as they show interest and achieve their goals. They will have special belts and uniforms as they progress in their training.
Demo Team
This will be a team made up of students who would like to go above and beyond the normal martial arts experience. It will be a way for students to show other people how much they have learned and enjoy martial arts. We will use the demo team for exhibitions in and out of the school. We encourage students of all ranks and ages to join. You must fill out an application to join. Come see a practice before you decide! Times and Practices to be announced.
Staff
As you advance, you may be asked to join the staff. If you join, you will be expected to participate in school activities and to attend staff meetings.
