V7 BASIC GUIDELINES
Functional Fitness
Out of consideration for others and sanitary reasons, please train with clean clothes. For those that transition from one class to another, please bring extra clothes in order to start your next session fresh.
For safety, always follow your coach’s instructions. Especially in the beginning, focus on good form rather than heavy weight loads.
Always be mindful of others and keep load drops to a minimum; only allowing drops for safety purposes.
Know your limits. The coach is there to assist you in choosing scaling options to best suit your needs.
Please refrain from coaching others during your sessions and let the coach be the guide.
Martial Arts
V7 Martial Arts’ approved Gi colors are white and blue.
Although we go barefoot on the martial arts practice mats, sandals are required on the main gym floor.
Out of respect for others, tshirts, or Gis are required at all times. Gis should be washed before every practice.
During MMA and Karate training, hands should be wrapped and gloves worn.
As with any contact sport, it is important to maintain body hygiene. Please keep nails trimmed and refrain from training when experiencing any potentially contagious symptoms.
Each specific martial arts discipline follows unique rules. Please inquire with the head coach for further information.
