The correct Dojo Etiquette must be observed at all times: i.e. bowing upon entering and leaving the Dojo, correct respect shown to Instructors and visiting Sensei, and respect for fellow members, whatever grade they may be.

• Smoking will not be permitted in the dojo.
• Members should at all times make a personal effort to ensure that their karate Gi's are washed and cleaned regularly.
• Toe nails and finger nails must be cut regularly so as to prevent injury to other members.
• Members who wear their hair long will be permitted to wear Machi-Machi (head-bands) to prevent hair falling into their eyes and effecting concentration during a training session.
• Rings, watches, necklaces, earrings and other personal adornments must be removed prior to each session. These items are liable to cause injury.
• All articles of value should not be left in the changing rooms as the Instructor and Secretary cannot be held responsible for articles which are lost, damaged or stolen.
• Members train at their own risk, neither the instructors or the Secretary can accept liability for any injuries incurred whilst training.
• Members should not arrive or go home in their karate Gi. Juniors who arrive/leave in their gi must NOT wear their belt.

N.B. Any member found using Karate against a person outside the Dojo
OR
found to be dishonorable
OR
of an unsuitable character
OR
who shows a blatant disregard for Dojo etiquette and respect
OR
shows no self-control whilst training

SHALL HAVE THEIR MEMBERSHIP TERMINATED.
