Gym Etiquette Rules
Etiquette is an important part of any martial arts gym, especially in an MMA gym like Apex MMA. Having good etiquette in the gym helps to create a respectful and safe environment for everyone to train in. It also helps the coaches to keep everyone focused on the task at hand while creating a sense of camaraderie amongst the team.
- Apex MMA is a space where learning, performance, equality and respect are emphasized.
- Be a good training partner by practicing safe training methods.
- Arrive on time and be ready to join in at the start of class. If you need to leave early from class, please let our coaches know.
- Shoes, thongs, sandals, or slides are never to be worn on the mats and should be stored in the provided shoe racks.
- Shirts must be worn in the reception area at all times.
- Footwear must be worn if using the bathroom area at any time, before, during or after class.
- All jewelry, piercings, necklaces and rings should be removed prior to training.
