September Updates to our Kids + Teens Memberships - FAQ’s
What will the new timetable be?
Link to the new timetable here.
When does the new timetable begin?
Monday 15th September.
Why are new Little Ones (4-6’s) classes slightly shorter?
We have learnt that at this age range 4-6’s benefit from a slightly shorter class length, it works better for their attention span and energy levels.
Why is the membership structure changing?
We want to make training easier and more consistent for our members, as well as making sure we can afford to run our business cost-effectively in order to provide the best training we can.
Why are the prices changing?
We have learnt so much during our first year and in order to offer the best training environment possible we have had to change our membership structure (see above), which also comes with a slight price change.
What if my child is a tier 2 member who wants extra classes?
Please get in touch with us directly and we are happy to accommodate when and where we can with a one-off class price that suits everyone. (Please note: as we roll out our new membership structure this is subject to change.) We are working hard to make Myriad operate at the highest level and appreciate your patience and understanding as we make these changes.
What is included in my membership?
We provide all gradings and new belts at no extra charge.
Full use of changing facilities with showers.
No cancellation fees. We understand kids are unpredictable!
(Please note: this is subject to change, as we continue to use our new booking APP MAAT, with the waitlist feature. If class numbers are not affected by unsustainable cancellations, we can continue not to charge for last-minute cancellations.)Most importantly: Jiu Jitsu! A safe, fun and passionate environment to train with an excellent community.
What is required before a class?
All members must be booked in to their class on our booking app MAAT. You can book in right up until class begins, but in order to begin grappling you must be logged in our system. This is for everyone's safety and enjoyment.
Why do I have to be booked in?
For everyone's safety, we require a secure ratio of kids: instructors. To get the most out of Jiu Jitsu the size of a class is really important to ensure everyone has time to learn and grapple with as many students as possible. It also helps us track attendance which is important for us to accurately grade your child.
Why the changes and why now?
At Myriad, we are all about Jiu Jitsu. We are making these changes to benefit every one of our fantastic students so we can all enjoy and get as much out of our time on the mats as possible.
We also have a growing waitlist of students wanting to train and we want to get as many people grappling as possible without compromising on the quality we deliver! Jiu Jitsu is a sport rooted in community and we believe the more the merrier.
What if I want to change my training days/times in accordance with the new timetable?
We understand that for some current members, some of our new classes may suit better. Please get in touch with us as soon as possible to let us know if you want to change training days and we will do our best to accommodate.
A note from us:
We have spent a lot of time trying to work out how best to meet the needs of our students, with plenty of great training partners and more opportunities to train/fit around everyone’s schedules. With more training opportunities and a tiered membership structure, we hope to meet these needs.
