Show respect to coaches, teammates, and visitors at all times.
Keep a positive attitude and support your training partners.
No coaching others unless you’re an instructor.
Always come to class clean, with trimmed nails and fresh gear.
Wash your rashguards, shorts, and training clothes after every class. Avoid wearing zippers, loose clothing, jeans, or any jewelry on the mats.

Water only on the mat; no food or sugary drinks.
Take all personal belongings and water bottles home daily.
Put equipment back where it belongs after use.
Keep changing rooms and bathrooms clean for the next person.

Be welcoming to new members and guests. Everyone starts somewhere.
If you’re visiting from another gym, check in at the front desk before class, and please pay the drop in fee before getting on the mats.
Respect the mat and your training partners.
Let higher-ranked students or instructors pick training partners first.
Keep a safe distance from other pairs when rolling.
Tap early and respect your partner’s tap — safety comes first.
Avoid talking or distractions while the coach is teaching.
