Etiquette
Attention all students and parents,
A quick reminder about some of our policies on etiquette for students and visitors. There are plenty of others but we ask that you take time to remember these specific ones...
Students
* Remember, when entering the gym: Salute the flags, then bow to the highest belt/instructor. When leaving: Bow to the highest belt/instructor, then salute the flags
* Always wear a clean and neat uniform to class and remember to practice good personal hygiene. Avoid wearing jewlery as it may pose a danger to you or others
* When approaching an instructor: remember to bow and ask to speak to them politely
* Conversations are NOT permitted between students during training time. This is especially true while an instructor is talking. This is seen as extremley disrespectful and will not be tolerated
* Ask permission to take a bathroom break or get a drink (no excessive breaks). DO NOT leave the training area without permission UNLESS IT'S AN EMERGENCY
* Learn the correct way to line up for class. When lining up for class, yield to higher belts, unless they are late. If you have the same rank, students holding their rank for the longer period of time (seniority) have priority. After this, students should act on good will.
* If you come in late to class. Bow in as normal, then sit in meditation at the edge of the training area. You should do this until an instructor allows you into class
* If for any reason you are not in full uniform and belt, you MUST ask the instructor's permission to train. Depending on the situation, you may have to yield to all other belts when lining up
Parents
* Please learn the correct starting time for your child's class. This will ensure they won't be treated "late". Please remember to also pick up your child on time.
* Parents are welcome to observe, but we ask that you do your best in not creating a distraction
* Please DO NOT leave other children in the hall unsupervised. Leaving them with their supervised friend(s) at the gym DOES NOT COUNT as supervision (e.g. leaving a child to play with the other kids while going to the store). UNLESS you ask another parent/adult to take reponsibility beforehand, this puts an unfair duty on instructors and other adults
* AND MOST OF ALL: PLEASE KEEP YOUR VOICES DOWN. Your voices carry a lot further than you may think. When in doubt, use a volume no higher than you would at a library.
Other Special Directions
* Kids who are waiting while parents train: Do your best to stay by the benches indoor, so if your parents turn to look, they can know where you are. DO NOT PESTER/BOTHER your parents over non-emergencies during their training (Batteries for a hand held game, minor arguments with siblings, a snack, etc). This is seen as disrespectful to your parents training as well as the instructors who are teaching a class
* The Dragon Gym of West Grove is NOT A PLAYGROUND! NO ONE is to be playing around in the gym, especially if someone is still in there training (before, during, or after class). This is both disrespectful and dangerous! The gym is for training, not playing with the equipment.
