Schedule Alert #2:
Eat Your Greens!




We're off to see the nizard! (ninja + wizard = duh)


Our path to the Red Band is being refurbished for you, our wary Green Band students, who are just soooo sure you can't do it.  Enough!  Starting January 1st we are announcing new class times for Eat Your Greens - our advanced conditioning class for Green Bands ONLY!  


This class allows Greens to focus their training for the Red more precisely.  If you lack technical skill, keep going to Green Band class.  If you lack strength, go Eat Your Greens.  This follows other changes we've made to our Level Up system and the Red Test, such as


1. The Red Test is now done in two parts


Part One 
Strength & Conditioning section
  
Part Two 
Technique & Stealth sections


The reason we did this is because the S&C section is so physically demanding that past testers have found it difficult to perform techniques afterwards.  Therefore, upon passing the S&C portion of the test students will then have up to 30 days to prepare for Technique & Stealth.




2. Mandatory class attendance for all Green Bands
 
Whether you want the Red or not, all Green Bands must attend ONE CLASS PER MONTH in order to keep their bands.  Oh no!  We need to see you once in a while to make sure you didn't forget how to, like, land.  Is that too many rules for you?  Awww, poor baby.  We invite you to try...any other sport or activity.  Then you can learn what Too Many Rules actually is!


Questions?  Give us a holler and let us know what you think.
