Students should use the restroom before class. If a student needs to use the restroom during class, they should raise their hand and ask for permission. This is done so the instructor knows where the student is, and the student can safely leave the training floor. When the student returns from the restroom, they should stand to the side, raise their hand and wait to be recognized. The instructor will stop the class at the appropriate time and allow the student back onto the training floor.
If it is an emergency, the student should not wait for permission, they should leave on their own.
When a student needs to leave the room, they should not cross through another group of students training. For safety, they should walk around the outside of the training area.
Uniforms that are too long in the sleeves or pants, should be hemmed or rolled up to alleviate a tripping hazard or a distraction from training.
Longer hair should be placed in a ponytail or tied back in a way that keeps it out of the student's eyes.
Students are not permitted to wear jewelry during training. Earings, rings, necklaces, or any other type of jewelry poses a training hazard to the student and their training partner.
Students should arrive early for class. If a student arrives late, they should stand to the side and raise their hand to ask for permission to join the rest of the class.
If a student needs to leave early, they should inform the instructor before class begins. When it is time for the student to leave, they should raise their hand and ask to be excused.

Class Rules:
Students should be well hydrated before class. Instructors lose valuable time if the student needs to get a drink during class. As instructors, we plan classes on what each student needs to work on for their next test, so please get a drink before class.
