Classes
Train hard. Grow well. Find your thing.
One place to explore martial arts, movement, creativity, and after-school programming—with coaching that meets you where you are.
Find your program
Three choices. A much shorter list.
Start with where you want to train. Then choose the participant’s age and what they want to learn. We’ll show the programs that fit.

The class finder narrows the choices. The complete catalog shows descriptions, schedules, ages, and enrollment links for all current Brainerd classes.
Your progress, every 90 days
See your growth. Celebrate what you can do.
Every 90 days, receive a personal progress report covering art, music, martial arts, gymnastics, and academics, with updates in the areas you participate in.
Each report records your goals, results, instructors, attendance, and a demonstrated character practice. It finishes with “What I’m proud of,” “What my family has noticed,” and “What I’ll share at the quarterly expo.” Areas you are not taking are marked “Not currently participating.”
Quarterly expos offer opportunities to share skills, performances, and creative work. Graduations reflect readiness and completed requirements.

The Ascension Expos
Train with purpose. Show what you’ve built.
Every 12 weeks, training becomes something a student can share.
Each participant chooses a goal, practices toward it, receives a progress report, and prepares one Expo Moment—a skill, routine, performance, artwork, academic project, or personal achievement. Families and community members come together to recognize both the result and the person becoming capable of it.
Gymnastics
Routines and newly mastered skills
Music
Live performances and musical growth
Art
Finished work and creative process
Academics

Ascension Flex Week
Miss a class week without losing the goal.
Flex Week helps a student stay on track during an eligible twelve-week course when school, sports, travel, illness, or family life interrupts the regular class week.
Instead of simply losing that week, the family contacts Team Ascension and we approve one appropriate way for the student to keep participating.
1. Tell us
Contact Team Ascension before the missed class whenever possible and explain which week the student cannot attend.
2. We confirm an option
Depending on the class, space, and the student’s goal, we may approve a comparable class, an online activity, or a structured home challenge.
3. Complete the Flex Week
Finish the approved option during the agreed time. We record the participation as part of the student’s work toward the same 90-day goal.
Example
A student normally attends Tuesday gymnastics, but the family will be traveling. The parent contacts Team Ascension in advance. Staff may approve a comparable class, assign an online activity, or provide a home challenge. After the student completes that approved option, the work remains part of the same 90-day progress period.
What Flex Week does not mean
An alternate class is not guaranteed; space and program fit must be confirmed. Flex Week is not unlimited instruction, childcare attendance, a cash credit, or a permanently banked makeup class.
Monthly class membership
Train more. Save more.
Choose individual tuition by age, build a multi-class schedule for one student, or use the Family Special for a family of four.
*Family participants may choose one class each that they would like to participate in for 12 weeks, $199/month.
