Answers for Franklin parents

Most children start at 4 in Tiny Titans. The free first class doubles as a readiness check, so we will tell you honestly whether your child is ready now or would do better waiting a few months.

Membership runs in the upper $100s to low $200s a month, depending on the commitment level you choose. Every membership includes two classes a week, up to three coaches on the floor and the first uniform. Family discounts are available, and the first class is free. We walk each family through the options in person after the free class.

Your child joins a real class with kids their age, gets a starter bag and earns a white belt at the end. There is nothing to sign up front except a short waiver, and no card is needed. You can watch the whole class from the parent area.

Comfortable clothes they can move in, and a smile. Training is barefoot on the mat. We handle the rest, and the first uniform comes with enrollment.

Every program meets twice a week. Pick any two class times for your child's age group, and change them week to week if your schedule changes.

No, and that is on purpose. Kids, teens and adults each train in a class built for their age, so everyone gets coaching at the right level. The whole family is invited to belt ceremonies.

Many Franklin parents come to us for exactly that. Classes are structured, predictable and broken into short, active segments. Coaches notice when a child drifts and bring them back with encouragement, never embarrassment.

Belt promotions happen every quarter, by invitation, once your child has earned every required stripe. Belts are earned through skill and character, never handed out on a payment schedule.

Yes, and we hope you will. The life lessons taught in class land best when they are echoed at home. If you need to step out, you are welcome to, as long as you are back on time for pickup.

Not at the Franklin school. Franklin teaches a karate base blended with boxing, kickboxing and self-defense. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu runs at our Spring Hill school on Monday and Wednesday evenings.

Tiny Titans is for ages 4 to 7, with 30 minute classes at a 6 to 1 ratio. Guardian Kids is for ages 8 to 12, with 45 minute classes at a 10 to 1 ratio. Gladiators is for teens and adults, 13 and up, with 45 minute evening classes.

Families choose between a month to month plan and 6 or 12 month goal plans. There is no fee for leaving early, only the notice period that comes with your plan. We explain every option in person after the free class.

Make it up in any other class for your child's age group within 30 days.

For every child's safety, a parent or approved guardian walks their child in, and comes inside to pick up. No child leaves without an approved adult.
