House rules

Every gym sets its own rules, and you tick them before you book. These apply everywhere.

• You're a guest. Say hello to the coach, follow their lead and their rules.
• Tap early, tap often. Let go the moment someone taps. Nobody wins an open mat.
• Match your partner. Roll at their pace. Go hard only when you both want to.
• No slams, no cranks. Heel hooks and other restricted moves only when the coach allows them.
• Clean kit, short nails. Clean gi or rashguard every session. No open wounds or skin infections.
• Cancel if you can't make it. Someone else wants that spot. No-shows can lose booking access.
• Don't poach. Visiting is about training, not recruiting members.
