Dojo Protocols
Drop Off & Pick Up Protocol
Students are to be dropped off at the east entrance changed (in their gi!) for all classes
Students are to bring to each class:
uniform (children and teens please come dressed for class).
adults may using changing facilities on site
mouth guard
(optional) notebook for students interested in taking notes
(optional) water bottle with your name on it.
The community center is busy, so please walk your child into the building - I will be waiting near the main entrance to receive them
Youth students may walk into the building independently at their parents discretion.
At the end of class, children will be asked to wait in the lobby until parents enter the building for pickup and to receive their child.
Youth students may exit the building independently after visual confirmation of guardian at their parents discretion
Outdoor Class Protocol
When weather is nice, we will sometimes have class outdoors, usually this is 3-5 classes per year.
What this means:
Nothing changes about location, schedule, uniform, drop off or pickup process. Class will be on the west side area of the community center.
Parents please bring your child to the west parking lot and you will see me and/or the dojo setup.
We may have another class outdoors later this summer as well - again weather permitting!
Safety:
While the training area we usually use has soft playground style compound rubber, it is best for your child to be in athletic sneakers for the class for safety.
The dojo mats will be out for students to use during stretching and warmup, so grass stains and slips, trips, falls will be minimized!
Please bring mouth guard as always
If weather is poor or questionable on the day of, please come inside the dojo and look for me first - class WILL be on either way, so if you don't see me outside, assume class has been moved indoors.
