Executive (semi-private) classes

If you’d like to train, learn, have fun, and improve with one or more of your friends… Then the Frota Academy Schaffhausen executive (semi-private) classes are for you!

Frota Academy executive classes are organized just for you and your friend(s).

You’ll love them because:

• You get to choose who you train with.
• They are catered entirely to your and your friends’ goals and schedule.

These training sessions are set completely in accordance with your own schedule, goals, preferences, and wants. It’s just like regular training – but you get to choose who you train with!

What are the benefits?

Training in an executive (semi-private) setting at the Frota Academy is a fantastic way to improve faster in your martial art.

While executive classes are in no way a substitute for regular (group) training sessions, they will be of great value to your martial arts journey.
Here is why:

• You can focus on the things that you want to learn;
• The instructor has more time to dedicate himself to what you need;
• You train when it fits your schedule;
• You can choose who you’ll train with.

In short: these classes are designed just for you.
Because they’re personalized, you will improve much faster than it would be the case otherwise.
