Beginning Karate for New Students

Begin your karate journey in 60-minute group classes that provide fun, guided instruction to students who are new to karate. Adults and youth (ages 6 and up) of all abilities and fitness levels are welcome. New students may take any of the classes on the Schedule in our Chicago or Oak Park locations designated for beginners. Most beginner classes combine youth and adults, which are perfect for families who would like to train together. Adult-only beginner classes are also available. Presently, we are not accepting new students in online classes (continuing/experienced students may participate.)

New students accepted in the first week of each calendar month. Note schedule and holidays.

Discounts and Policies

MONTHLY TUITION / MISSED CLASSES

Monthly tuition is paid for the whole calendar month. There are no refunds for missed classes/absences. Students may make-up a class within the same month by attending another class at the Chicago or Oak Park dojo location (appropriate for age and rank).

Enso tends to close for major holidays observed by most schools, as that’s often when families travel or relax. We are generally closed for about 1 week per quarter, and we encourage students to train more during the weeks before or after those holidays.

REFUNDS
There are no refunds after the start of classes.  Payments must be made in full at the time of registration (in advance of classes).

AUTO-RENEW DISCOUNT
Continuing students may opt-in to “auto-renew” which provides a $5 discount on the monthly tuition when the payment is processed automatically on the first of the month. With this option, Enso will automatically re-enroll the student for the next month and charge the tuition fee with a credit card on file securely through our online system (scheduled for the first of the month). This is not a yearly contract; you can cancel at any time by sending an email to us at least 7 days before the 1st of the month.

FAMILY DISCOUNT
Students from the same household who are enrolled concurrently will each receive a $5 discount off their monthly fee. For households with four or more concurrently enrolled students, the family member with the lowest tuition option will receive a 100% discount on their monthly tuition. This 100% discount replaces the $5 family discount for that student.

COLLEGE STUDENT DISCOUNT
Full-time, enrolled college or university students can receive $30 off the monthly fee. Please show copy of current class schedule every quarter/semester. College discount may not be combined with the family discount or auto-renew discount.
