i never did like the free class, because i really am only interested in the students who are already interested in training. i did not like to feel like i have to "entertain" the student to make him interested. i do it, because its like the puppy dog sale in a pet store, you know they always say, wanna hold him? thats how you buy.
but for my teaching philosophy i have mixed feelings. our training is different almost every class, but most of the time, in the first few months of training we do more exercise than technique, and then after about 4 months it goes the other way around. they cannot learn what we are about in one day. its best the students tries it for one month, then decides after 8-10 classes, what is going to be like.
but, this is business, so i usually end up doing "the free class".
