FAQ – Quick Answers

Who can attend?

Anyone.  It doesn’t matter what style you study, what rank you are, whether you are a beginner or an expert, you will get something out of this training camp.

Is this an instructor camp?

Yes. However, if you don’t want to become an instructor, that’s okay. The base price for the camp is for everyone. For those who are attending as a new instructor or are testing to level up, there is an extra cost in addition to the cost of the camp.

How will virtual training work?

We have discontinued the Virtual Training Option. However, we will be filming the semainr and will be posting it on GM Frank’s training website. If you do not have an account at BramFrankModularTraining.com and you would like access to it after the camp is over, you will need to create one.
