Seiyo Kai International

We do not teach martial arts for a living – we teach martial arts only because we love to. Thus we work to cover our costs & have some of the lowest rates in the US.

FEES (ARIZONA)

Adult Karate

• Monthly Dues - $65/person (INDIVIDUAL) or $85/family (FAMILY MEMBERSHIP) (this allows one to train in all Tuesday, Thursday & Friday adult Shorin-Ryu karate, kobudo and self-defense classes. OR
• Daily Fee - $10/day. This is for those members who cannot make all of the classes and find that only 1 class per week is sufficient for their training. This must be paid at the beginning of each class.

Testing & Certification

• Periodically, students are asked to test. Depending on the student, this typically occurs after 3 to 6 months of training (longer for kids). If you pass the exam, you will be promoted after you pay your fee. All mudansha ranks (9^th kyu to 1^st kyu) known as color belts, are $50/rank. Black belt certifications typically require 2 to 5 years between testing. The Shodan rank (1^st degree black belt) fee is $150. All consecutive ranks are an additional $25/rank. If you do not pass, you do not pay.
