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.
