ACADEMY RULES

#1 - Coach is always in charge

Leave your pride at the door, we’re all here to learn and support each other.

Arrive to class on time and line up in rank/experience order in uniform (Either a TRG rashguard or shirt).

Always listen and respect your coach and instructors at all times, permission and bowing is required before ever entering or exiting the mats.

If the timer is running and class is in session, you listen and follow instructions, not just for class but for the safety of the other members.

You keep rolling until the coach calls the end of the timer, no leaving the mats for any reason without asking the coach in charge first. Unless of course of illness, dizzy or injured.

#2 - Keep it clean!

Hygiene goes further than the bathroom - trash behaviour is not welcome at our academy.

We have a zero tolerance for bullies and swearing and expect high standards for all our students. We keep it respectful to coaches, instructors, each other and most of all yourselves.

Bow as you enter and exit the mat and to your training partners and touch gloves or hands before starting.

To keep you and your team mates safe, we also expect a high level of hygiene standards from everyone.

Always ensure hands and feet are clean before stepping on the mats, with all nails cut short. When off the mats, going to the bathroom or leaving the academy facilities - shoes or slippers must always be worn.

Take a shower before and after training as soon as possible and scrub well. Bring a sweat towel to minimise fluid transfer.

Keep all gym equipment clean and packed away when not in use and respect all equipment and minimise any damage where possible.

Children and Teens are not to use the equipment and weights to minimise risk.

Keep all food and drinks off the gym floor, a clean gym keeps us all safe.

Keep all cuts, abrasions and scrapes tapes and dressed. If any occur during training, ensure they’ve been disinfected and cleaned.

Don’t store your sweaty gear in a place they will stay damp and ensure you’re always wearing clean gear on the mats.

#3 - Stay honest

It’s your responsibility to keep all your details up to date with us to the best of your ability. We’re an academy that celebrates each other as a team so no one enters our gym a stranger. We require identification upon entering to cover any liabilities and so we get to know you for you.

Be considerate of each other in and outside of the mats and the discipline of the academy

Integrity is at the heart of our academy, if you want to take it easy or have a ‘slow roll’ - speak up to your teammates. Be upfront if you want to roll competitively and don’t prey on your team mates when they’re injured or tired.

With time comes experience, but in our academy it’s also about teammates and growth. If you’re sparring or partnered with someone new, support them and their journey, we’re all learning together.

#4 - Get hurt but don’t hurt yourself

We know that martial arts are a highly physical and active sport, so we’ll find ourselves with a few scrapes and bruises occasionally. Our TRG coaches are always well experienced and promote a safe training environment for everyone, but there are some simple guidelines to avoid getting hurt or hurting your partner.

Always ensure you’re wearing the correct training and protective gear when required.
Pain is not always weakness leaving your body, when in doubt - tap early, tap hard. And no matter what, always honour a tap.

Grabbing of hair, ears or fingers is not allowed, eye pokes and groin hits may be inevitable but if we find you’ve done so intentionally - we reserve the right to cancel your membership. Keep the etiquette and respect high and injuries low.

There’s a big difference between getting hurt with experience and hurting yourself though.

We have a zero tolerance policy for illicit drugs and alcohol, if we find you’re under the influence of drugs and alcohol while attending a class or sparring, we may terminate your membership and escort you off the property. Our team members and coaches safety are always what comes first.

Put yourself in the best position possible to avoid injury such as wearing appropriate exercise gear (sports shirts, rash guards, martial arts shorts). For this reason we don’t allow jeans or clothes that may cause damage to you or the gym property.
