What age can kids start martial arts classes?
Many schools accept kids as young as 4 or 5 in a "little dragons" or similar intro program, though most structured belt curricula start around age 6-7. The right age depends more on whether the child can follow instructions in a group setting than on any strict cutoff.

How much do kids martial arts classes cost?
Monthly tuition for kids classes commonly runs $80-150, sometimes less at community or rec-center programs and more at schools with active competition teams. Most schools also charge a one-time registration fee plus periodic costs for belt testing or uniforms.
