We recommend attendance regiment of 2x a week. Any less and your son or daughter will have a difficult time to remember the material and advance to the next rank.
It is best to set two specific days a week and stick to the routine to develop a habit. It takes about 2 months to settle into the new habit, and then things will get easier.
IT’S EASY TO GET STARTED.
