What it costs

Nothing is owed for the first session. If your athlete wants to keep going, we'll walk you through the options that fit your schedule, in person, after they've trained, not before.

For a limited time, new families get 40% off group training, and keep that rate for as long as they're members.

Placement*

Athletes are grouped by a mix of demonstrated skill and grade. The bands below overlap deliberately, an eighth grader can train in any of the four levels, so a level says nothing about whether an athlete is ahead or behind for their age. Movement between levels happens on evaluation, not on a calendar, and where your athlete starts is set after their free session.
