ADVISORY OF RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Safety is not the sole responsibility of instructors and staff. Everyone in class is responsible for their own safety and the safety of those around them.
NOTICE AND CONSENT TO INSTRUCTORS
This school seeks to make use of highly-trained, professional instructors, with both expertise and experience both in the art we teach and in teaching. Classes may be taught by the head instructor or any other qualified instructor. Should an instructor be unavailable for a given class, a junior instructor, senior student or guest instructor may teach. The choice of the instructor is left to the discretion of the school.
ASSUMPTION OF RESPONSIBILITIES AND RISK
Martial arts is a potentially dangerous activity. Bumps, bruises, scrapes, scratches and soreness are commonplace, and most students will encounter this sort of minor injury from time to time in their training. More serious injuries are possible, including sprains, strains, twists, cramps, and injuries of similar magnitude, and students can expect to encounter these injuries infrequently. The possibility of more serious injury exists, including fractured bones, broken bones, torn ligaments, though not all students encounter such serious injuries. There remains, despite safety precautions, the remote possibility of crippling or death, though this is certainly not expected in this martial arts class. I understand the above statement of risk, and I understand the rights and responsibilities of students. I assume responsibility for my own safety (or the safety of my child), understanding and accepting the risks involved with martial arts training. Even if the instructor has informed me that no serious injuries have ever happened in this school or with any of the instructors, I understand that this does not mean that there is no possibility of harm. By assuming this risk, I completely absolve all instructors, staff, guests, students, landlords, management companies and any and all other parties of liability for my harm, unless intentionally caused in criminal conduct. I understand that I may not always have the instructor I desire, but I shall seek to learn from whomever is teaching, to show the respect due the position of teacher to whomever is teaching, and to conduct myself in accordance with the etiquette established at this school. I understand that I have the responsibility for my own safety without regard to who is teaching the class. I specifically consent to any instructor the school, instructors or staff feel are sufficiently qualified by any standards they set to teach the class. I specifically understand and agree that the full force of this document applies no matter who is teaching.
CONSENT TO PHYSICAL CONTACT
I understand the nature of physical contact in martial arts training, and I understand that I have the right to immediately withdraw from any exercise or drill in which the conduct of any party seems beyond the scope of training or makes me uncomfortable. I agree to abide by school etiquette in all matters pertaining to training, and I shall not in any way conduct myself inappropriately or take inappropriate advantage of the contact martial arts training allows.
NOTICE OF PHYSICAL CONTACT
Complete martial arts training involves a wide variety of skills. While practicing these skills, students may have contact with any portion of the body. The groin may be the target of kicks, strikes and grabs. The chest, buttocks, groin, or any part of the body may be contacted by any part of the training partners’ body during training by martial arts techniques, or incidentally contacted while performing a martial arts technique targeting another portion of the body. When male and female students train together, or when adult and minor students train together, and in any other training combination, the purpose and intent of the school, instructors and staff is to provide an environment for all students to learn and practice martial arts and self-defense. Students are expected to conduct themselves appropriately at all times to ensure the best training results for everyone. Should any student feel a training partner is engaging in contact beyond the scope of training, or a training partner is taking undue and unacceptable advantage of training contact, or if a student is made uncomfortable by any training exercise or partner, then that student has the right to withdraw from the exercise or drill. If the conduct of the training partner appears inappropriate, the student should inform an instructor privately. If the conduct of the training partner or any training partner appears criminal, then an instructor should be informed and the authorities may be notified either by the student or the instructor, or both.
DURABILITY
This document is effective from the date signed with no expiration. Furthermore, the terms of this document are retroactive to the beginning of training and visiting the school if this document was signed after that date. I have read this document, and I understand the content of it. I agree to abide by the terms of it.
