Special Instructions
Proper Attire: All students must wear a clean Judo gi (uniform). If your child does not yet have one, please let us know so we can assist with purchasing. For hygiene purposes, please ensure that your child’s gi is in good condition and appropriately fitted. Personal Hygiene: Students should come to class with clean hands and feet. Fingernails and toenails should be trimmed short for safety. Hair should be tied back if long to prevent it from getting in the way during practice. No Jewelry: For safety reasons, jewelry (including earrings, rings, necklaces, and bracelets) should be removed before class. Arrival Time: Please arrive 10-15 minutes before the start of class to ensure your child is prepared and ready to begin on time. Late arrivals may miss important warm-up exercises. Water Bottle: It is important for students to stay hydrated during class. Please send your child with a water bottle clearly labeled with their name. Respect and Focus: Judo emphasizes respect for others and the sport itself. Students are expected to listen to instructors, follow directions, and demonstrate good sportsmanship. Parents are encouraged to watch and cheer, but please refrain from interrupting or coaching from the sidelines. Safety First: Judo involves physical contact, and students will learn how to fall safely (breakfalls) and execute techniques with control. Our instructors prioritize safety, but we ask that you remind your child to be mindful of their own well-being and that of their classmates. Absences: If your child is unable to attend a class, please notify us in advance if possible. Consistency is key to progress, so regular attendance is encouraged. Parent Participation: Occasionally, parents may be asked to assist with warm-ups or activities. Your support is greatly appreciated! Class Etiquette: When entering or leaving the mat area, students should bow as a sign of respect. This is a fundamental part of Judo tradition that helps instill discipline and focus. We look forward to seeing your child grow and thrive in Judo
