Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I train with you and not elsewhere?
There are several different martial arts schools in this area, but once you visit our school you will not want to
train anywhere else. Our classes are always fun and excited because they cover something new every time.
We pride ourselves in bringing out the best in you as well as teach you top of the line martial arts. Let us make
you a CHAMPION!
How long does it take to earn a black belt?
Martial arts is not a race to see how fast you can get a black belt but more of a journey towards overall self-
improvement. We have 9 belts in our school before the black belt, but the length of time can range from 2 ½
years to 5 years depending on how well you are progressing. The more work you put into karate, the more you
get out of karate much and like most things in life PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT!
What is sparring?
Sparring is a type of fighting that is in a controlled environment. We wear safety gear to help prevent any
injuries. Sparring lets you make contact and practice your technique and skill with someone at your same belt
level. Sparring helps improve on your timing, control, blocking and speed. It is more realistic to spar against
someone than to hit a bag. As Bruce Lee said, “Bag’s Don’t Hit Back!”
Do you require sparring?
When you first join our club, we cover the basics so that you can learn how to protect, as well as, defend
yourself. We do make sparring a requirement for many reasons. One of the most important reasons is we to
get a feel for what it would feel like in a real world situation. Fighting in real life hurts, so this is a way to
reinforce you to avoid fights. We do not let our students spar until they are a yellow belt or higher and show us
that they know how to use control.
Do you offer a trial program?
When you join a martial arts school it is very important that you like the way things are taught. Much like when
you are buying a new car, you should take it for a test drive. At D-Lux New World Karate, we offer a FREE
INTRO CLASS no strings attached to see how you like our teaching and if it makes sense for us to become
part of the same team.
