Parents of younger students (and older students) should notify us at their earliest convenience if they will be continuing with classes in the fall season. Essentially, we need to know which classes students would like to reserve during this time in order to get you onto the appropriate class lists. Students aged thirteen years or older are eligible to transition to Adult classes (including Karate, Jiu-jitsu, Thai Kickboxing, and Strength & Conditioning.) These classes do not need to be reserved.
With the pandemic metrics and restrictions way down, we are returning to our pre-pandemic approach to class limits on classes this season. These vary slightly from class to class based on the age-ranges and number of instructors available for each class. Ultimately, these limits are optimized based on many years of experience on the matter.
Students and parents can reserve their classes by any of the following ways:
¨ By speaking to someone directly at the front desk
¨ By sending an email to [email protected]
¨ By calling us at 413-637-0656
Please remember that class reservations and lists are made on a ‘first come first served’ basis. Waiting lists will be generated for classes that exceed their set limit. Students who are not able to attend their first choice for classes right away are encouraged to choose alternative classes until space opens up in their preferred classes.
Also, remember that class reservations will only be effective with an active student enrollment. Reservations for students not currently enrolled must be accompanied with tuition payment to restart the student’s membership. Remember, too, that ‘Partial Participation’ discounts are reserved for students age seven years old and younger.
Although the pandemic seems to be winding down, we are continuing to exercise some caution in the gym. This includes sanitizing, extra cleaning, intelligent personal care, and students refraining from attending when sick. Face coverings will remain optional and students who are more comfortable wearing them are encouraged to do so. With these precautions students CAN reap the benefits of the learning, physical activity, and socialization at ZenQuest.
New class schedules are now available via our website and at our front desk. Please see page 2 for a summary of the schedule adjustments. The new schedule takes affect on Tuesday, September 6th. As always, please let us know if you have any questions or concerns going forward. We will look forward to another great season of fun and learning at the oldest and best martial arts school in the Berkshires!!
