Adult classes are open to students of all levels and beginners may start at anytime. Beginners receive individual instruction from senior students in exercises, falling safely and basic techniques.

In traditional Japanese fashion, there is no course schedule. Students with varying levels of experience practice together to the best of their ability, and newer students learn from their seniors. All members are encouraged to practice as often as possible. In any case, each student determines how often and how rigorously he or she will practice.
