Taeja, my kids love it!
Our instructor suggests a minumum of 3 times a week. She has classes all week long and we get there when it is most convenient for us. I dont think the cost for the classes is that bad at all. I pay $120 a month for all 3 of my kids. Like I said, if I wanted to take them to class every day of the week it would still be $120. What gets expensive is the testing and equipment. I only paid $100 for all 3 to join, that included the 1st months classes as well as all their uniforms. Nothing else was needed, and she gave them all a free class to make sure they would like it. They love love love it. THey did not need any equipment until they got to green belt, then they needed sparring equipment which was ugly. It was a little less than $200 each BUT my youngest DS Max did not need it, because he is a Tiger Cub. Ages 6 and under are tiger cubs, which I think your kids would fall under that right? We are training under ITA which stand for International TaeKwonDo Assoc. ( I think?) From what I understand there are a few different ones. I really like that my kids study the 7 tenets, hmm lets see if I can remember
Honor, courtesy, community, self control, perserverance,integrity and courage (?) I think LOL I am so bad. My older 2 are now senior green belts and have only been doing it since October. My DS Mas 5 is a Tiger Cub with a blue stripe. My 2 oldest say they want to get to their black belts, so we shall see.
Oh I almost forget, the monthly fee is not the bad ( considering that is for 3 kids) but what kinda irritates me is that they test every 8 weeks and it is $50 a kid to test. Then now at the end of APril they are having their very 1st tournament, and it was $50 a kid to enter that.......but they wanted to try it out so we will see again...LOL HTH call up a local dojo and see if they would offer you a class for free..

Hi ya! 
me anyway! 
My poor puppy!!!! I had noticed that she had been scratching alot and chewing on her paws (signs of allergies) but I really got concerned when I noticed that she was starting to develop spots where her hair was thinning out. Well, I took her in, they did a skin scrape & found the little mites. I was horrified. I was like "not MY dog". Well, it's not the BAD kind and it's actually pretty common in puppies. They said it can be an inherited trait and/or she just picked up the little mites while going outside to do her business. Older dogs can easily fight it off, but since puppies immune systems are not as strong (especially after receiving vaccinations) they usually require treatment. They gave her a shot and I also have to apply some medication once a week. Hopefully it won't be too soon before her thinning spots show some regrowth. Well, we love 
her anyway!
, smoking, drinking/drunk
