Training Policies
Registration & Enrollment
FCMAA provides classes and offers new student registration and enrollment year round. All new students are required to schedule and attend one free class trial prior to registration. During this free class, the student will be evaluated by the Master Instructor. If the student and the Master Instructor feel that the student is ready to start classes, a Registration Form must be filled out and turned in with the monthly tuition, a one-time registration fee, and the required equipment order.
*Master Instructor reserves the right to refuse training to any student based on the evaluation*
*Free class trials are scheduled based on enrollment availability within the requested class. If spaces are unavailable in the requested class, interested students can be placed on a Waitlist. Registration is not in effect until payment is received in full.*
Waitlist
Guardian’s wishing to be placed on the Waitlist must provide their full name, student's name, student's age, phone number, and an appropriate email address. When space opens up the Waitlisted guardians will be contacted starting with the first entry on the list. Each entry will be contacted by both phone and email. Each guardian has 72 hours to respond to the communication and schedule their free trial class. Class spots are filled on a first pay, first served basis. If no response is conveyed within 72 hours that guardian will be dropped from the Waitlist.
Payment
FCMAA implements an automatic withdrawal system for our monthly tuition payments. Monthly tuition will be charged to the card or account on file on the 5th of every month. If you notice multiple debits to your account, it is your responsibility to notify FCMAA. You are responsible for any outstanding balances on your account. If you do not have a card or account to put on file for automatic payments, you will be required to pay monthly tuition by cash or check quarterly with a $5 processing fee.
Monthly tuition not received by the deadline will be considered late and there will be a $10 late fee added onto the account. Accounts will be monitored on the 5th, 10th, 15th, and the last day of the month. If monthly tuition is still not paid by the review dates, a new $10 late fee will be assessed for each review date.
Registration fees, tuition payments, and testing fees are non-refundable.
There will be no prorating or refunds given due to missed classes.
The registration fee for new students will be $15. The registration fee for families adding another student will be $5 per new entry. This will be automatically withdrawn after registration.
Any cancelled, disputed, or returned payment will incur an $20 processing fee.
Monthly tuition is charged per student and based on the number of training hours per week. Monthly tuition is charged monthly, and sales tax is already included! We accept cards, bank transfers, check or cash payments. ACH transfers are free, and all cards incur a 3% card processing fee.

Class Age Restrictions

Any special request for enrollment outside of the listed class age range must be made prior to registration through the Master Instructor. All students requesting special enrollment must have actively participated in a class within their age range for a skill level review.
Attendance
Being present in class is important to the success of the student. Programs that follow a belting system especially depend on consistent attendance. Eligibility to test is dependent on class attendance. Students registered in a class following a belting system are allowed three (3) unexcused absences within a testing session (3 - 6 months). If you must miss a class please notify the office via text, email, or phone. Repeated absenteeism and/or tardiness may lead to disciplinary action, up to and including suspension from classes.
Equipment
All equipment must be purchased through FCMAA. Any equipment purchased outside of the academy will need to be approved by the Head Instructor prior to use in classes.
FCMAA will take equipment orders at the end of each month. All equipment orders placed must be paid in full and in advance before the final order is submitted. To place an order, speak with your Head Instructor for prices and sizing.
All new students are required to purchase shin guards and a class specific uniform at the time of registration.
All green belts and above are required to purchase and use gloves. Gloves are required for both Taekwondo and Hapkido classes.

You are responsible for regularly reading the information disseminated by FCMAA through these methods.
Open Door Policy
FCMAA has an open door policy for all guardians and students. This means, literally, that every Head Instructors’ door is open to everyone. The purpose of our open door policy is to encourage open communication, feedback, and discussion about any matter of importance to our martial arts family. Whether you have a problem, a complaint, a suggestion, or an observation, we want to hear from you. By sharing, FCMAA is able to improve, to address complaints, and to foster a better understanding of our family’s needs. Please reach out to your Head Instructor or Master Instructor with any questions or concerns.

If an additional break is required an extension must be requested. All extended break requests must be filled out 15-days prior to your upcoming monthly tuition payment. You will be responsible for the next payment if you do not give a 15-day written notice.
Class Withdrawal
If class attendance is no longer possible for you or your martial artist, you must fill out a class Withdrawal Form. The Withdrawal Form must be filled out 30-days prior to your upcoming monthly tuition payment. You will be responsible for the next payment if you do not give a 30-day written notice. Please be aware that no prorating or refunds will be issued due to withdrawing from classes. All automatic charges will stop after the 30-day written notice is received.
Any student who is gone for 1 month without communicating with their Head Instructor will be considered inactive and will lose their spot in the class.
