Using Caution When Choosing Martial Arts School

Hi I'm Mike Payne owner of the Academy for Martial Arts speaking on behalf of Expert Village on the topic of "What to look for in a Martial Arts school." I would avoid schools where the classes are too crowded. You've got the student/teacher ratio is very high. They don't have a floor where they're going to be safe if they fall down. Keep that intensity up. Keep that focus up. Keep paying attention. Keep striving to do your absolute best one hundred percent of the time. If you've got very young instructors, if you've got instructors you've got teenage students or maybe let's say a green belt leading the class, I would definitely avoid that. I mean we work hard in that. Because I know there are schools, like that one they do the after school, they get like fifty or sixty, seventy kids in one class. They have whomever they can get to help teach.
