The After School Program will include 45 minutes of Hybrid Martial Arts training each day, and 45 minutes of tumbling on Wednesdays. Students will also have 45 minutes per day of mandatory study time or quiet time. Students that do not have homework may draw or read, and will not be permitted to play around or disrupt the other students during their study time. Students will be given a light snack such as crackers or a cookie when they arrive at the gym. If your child has food allergies, please notify the instructors. You will be expected to provide an alternate snack which meets your child’s specific needs. Individually wrapped and sealed packages may be stored at the gym in the event of a special dietary need.

     Students will be expected to help pick up their work and practice areas at the end of each day. The study of Martial Arts teaches discipline and respect, which includes the respect for their work and practice areas. Please allow your child time to complete their responsibilities when you are picking them up at the end of the day. You will be asked to sign-out your child each day when you pick them up. Please be sure to complete an authorized pick-up card and include the names of everyone that you will allow your child to be released to. Your child will not be released to anyone that is not listed on the card. The After School Program ends at 6:00 p.m. every day. Students are expected to be picked up no later than 6:00 p.m. If a student is picked up late, a late fee will be charged of $1 per 5 minutes up until 6:15, and $1 per minute thereafter.

     The After School Program will include van pick-up transportation from the student’s school, to the gym. Please remember to notify your school that your child will be picked up by the Flip & Twist / Hybrid Martial Arts Academy van. Pick-up times will be coordinated with the school system. It is the parent or guardian’s responsibility to contact and leave a message on the After School Program phone if your child will be absent on any day. The contact number is 321-805-0621. Please do not contact the main gym phone line. These messages will not be received prior to school pick-up times. It is extremely important that the driver is aware of which students are in attendance at school and need to be picked up, for the safety of all of the children. Failure to give proper notification to the program when the student is absent from school or will not need to be picked up, will result in a fee of $5 per occurrence.
