When you pay the monthly training fee you may attend all the regular classes offered by the dojo: general classes, intermediate classes, adult beginning classes, even the children's classes. You may train as many times each week as you like. If you choose to train only once per week, it is a rather expensive rate. The more frequently you train, the less expensive each class.
If you are a college student, you may pay the Student Rate of $55 per month.
If you pay regular training fees (not mat fees) at another dojo, you may pay the Co-Dojo rate of $55 per month. If you do so, please keep the chief instructor informed about where you are training.
If more than one member of your family (live in the same house; share combined finances) practices at North Bay Aikido, you are entitled to the family discounts: 25% off the training fee for the second family member, 50% off the training fee for the third (and more) family member. You may determine which family member is which to your benefit.
Example: One adult family member would normally
pay full fees ($80); the second family member is a college student ($55); the
third family member is a child ($60). The most beneficial (to the family) way
to calculate monthly fees is to name the college student the first family
member ($55); the child as the second family member (25% discount on $60 =
$45.00 per month); and the adult family member as the third family member (50%
discount on $80 = $40.00 per month.)
