CODE OF CONDUCT
Capoeira is a martial art. As with any martial art, discipline is paramount. We have a few rules, but we ask that all are followed when training or visiting our home. We thank you in advance.
Arrive on Time
students will not be permitted to train 15 minutes after the scheduled start time
Check-In to Every Class
this helps with attendance tracking as well as important updates we may need from you
You can do this on the Tablet in the academy or thru the member portal
No Outside Shoes on the Training Floor
We train barefoot and this protects our feet from rocks, glass, etc that could be tracked onto the training floor from outside
Change Quickly and Organize Your Belongings
We are very limited on space. Please get dressed as quickly as possible as others will be waiting and keep your belongings in a cubby and out of the general walkways/areas.
Be Respectful
Respect the integrity of your fellow students
Follow directions and don't carry on conversations while the Instructor is teaching.
Train Hard
Do your best at all times
Push yourself and your partner, but not to the point of injury
Avoid doing techniques that are not part of the lesson
Say "SALVE!" when entering and leaving the academy
This is how we greet each other and show respect to the academy.
