// HOW IT WORKS
Enrollment at Purple Dragon ATL follows one clear path, and it begins the same way for every student: with a $50 Private Assessment — the first payment toward your enrollment.
Every student at Purple Dragon ATL begins with a $50 Private Assessment. This is not a trial class or a free sample. It is a scheduled, one-on-one professional evaluation, the same way training begins for every brother and sister in the Dojo.
What Happens
Why We Start Here
You meet one-on-one with a certified Purple Dragon ATL instructor on the mat for approximately 30 minutes. Parents are welcome and encouraged to observe the full session. This is where we learn about the student, and where you learn whether this Dojo is the right fit for your family.
What We Evaluate
What You Get
After the assessment, your instructor gives you a direct recommendation: the right program, the right class placement, and the training frequency that matches your goals. Every number is confirmed in writing, and there is no pressure to decide on the spot.
What We Cover
How Frequency Works
You step onto the mat as a student of Don Jitsu Ryu, part of a lineage founded in 1970 under Grandmaster Professor Don Jacob. From your first class, you train alongside brothers and sisters who show up consistently, because that is how progress is earned.
Your First Weeks
What Progress Looks Like
The assessment is $50 per student, and it counts toward your enrollment. Enroll within 7 days and the Warrior Starter Bundle is only the $85 remainder per student. The bundle covers your uniform, registration, and everything needed to get started; monthly tuition begins alongside it.

Your $50 assessment is a private evaluation with a certified instructor — not a trial class or sales pitch. It ensures you or your child starts with clarity, safety, and the right training path.
Booking note: Each assessment is reserved for one student. Families with multiple children should book separate, back-to-back time slots.
Every student at Purple Dragon ATL begins with a private, one-on-one evaluation. The $50 covers your instructor’s dedicated time, a professional readiness and skill screening, and a personalized placement recommendation. It is not a group trial — it is a professional evaluation. Your $50 also counts as the first payment toward enrollment: enroll within 7 days and you pay only the $85 remainder of the $135 Warrior Starter Bundle. Monthly tuition is separate and begins at enrollment.
No. The assessment is designed for complete beginners as well as students with prior martial arts training. Your instructor will evaluate you at your current level and recommend the right starting point, regardless of your background.
Comfortable athletic clothing — t-shirt, shorts or athletic pants. No jeans, no zippers, no jewelry. Training is done barefoot, so no special shoes are needed. If you enroll, your uniform is included in the Warrior Starter Bundle.
Yes. Parents are welcome and encouraged to observe the full session. You will be able to see exactly how your child responds to instruction, how the instructor engages with them, and what training at the Dojo looks like up close.
Yes, in two ways. Your total to begin — assessments plus the Warrior Starter Bundle — is priced by household size: $135 for one student, $225 for two, $315 for three, and $405 for four. Assessments are $50 per student and count toward those totals, so at enrollment within 7 days your family pays only the remainder plus each student’s first month of tuition. Monthly tuition carries a household discount: 10% off for two students, 15% for three, 20% for four, and 25% for five. Your exact household rates are confirmed in writing at your assessment.
