We believe in a certain code of conduct within our classes to promote self discipline and respect to our fellow students and instructors.
On entering and leaving the training location the student must face into the hall and bow with hands together as a mark of respect to the training environment.
Students must always bow when greeting other students
Senior students must always make themselves available for lower grades to ask questions and to explain technique when asked.
When a Senior or Instructor enters the hall, the most senior student in the hall must draw everbody's attention to stand, and say '"Face senior/sifu, Attention, Bow" an instruction all present must follow.
Chief Instructors are to be addressed as Sifu whilst in the training location.
Classes must line up in accordance to grade with the most senior at the front right, consecutively going down in grade to the left and backwards.
The class is started by the most senior student saying "Face Sifu/Instructor Attention,Bow" an instruction all must follow.
Be on time for the start of all classes
Any latecomers must come to the front of the class, wait for the instructor's acknowledgement, bow to the instructor then the class and join in at the back.
When a student needs to be excused during the class they must approach the instructor, wait to be acknowledged, bow and ask for permission to leave the class.
When using equipment treat it with respect and always bow before taking from another student.
At the end of the class, all students must line up in formation according to grade facing the front. The instructor will say "turn around and adjust your dress" to which all students will face the back and straighten their clothing and belts The most senior student will clap and say "Face Sifu/Instructor, Attention Bow" then the second most senior will say "Face Senior, Attention Bow" to which everybody will follow.
