Our Teaching Approach
At Cal Coast Martial Arts, we've developed a teaching methodology specifically optimized for homeschool students. Our structured yet flexible approach ensures students master fundamental skills while advancing at their own pace.
Our four-part instructional sequence creates a consistent learning environment where students know what to expect while continually being challenged with new material:
- Demonstrate: Instructors clearly model the complete skill or technique
- Teach Components: Break down complex movements into manageable parts

- Performance: Students demonstrate mastery individually or in groups
This methodical approach is particularly effective for homeschooled students, who often benefit from clear structure combined with personalized attention.
