Update of Attire Policy

06.25.14 By Patrick Leave a Comment

Vibram FiveFingers 170411: Bikila and KomodoSport.
It’s that time again: A reminder of the Academy’s attire policy. The update is a clarification on footwear and is highlighted below.

  • Students are asked to wear either a Krav Maga Worldwide shirt, a plain white shirt, or a plain black shirt. Official Krav Maga attire (T-shirts, shorts, pants) is available for purchase at the school. (First-time students may wear any comfortable athletic clothing.) All clothing and equipment must be clean without excessive wear, holes, or tears. See also: “Don’t be a stinky partner”.
  • Bring a pair of CLEAN, DRY athletic shoes (no street shoes allowed). This is especially important in rainy weather and the winter. Not only does it keep the mats clean, but it lessens the safety risk of someone slipping. All footwear must be secured to the feet by straps, laces, etc. Slip-on shoes or shoes that are too loose pose a safety risk to you and your training partners.
  • ALL jewelry is to be removed (earrings, necklaces, watches, rings, etc.) for your safety and the safety of your training partners.

The Academy’s policies and FAQ can be found here: Krav Maga FAQ

Summer Break 2014

06.23.14 By Patrick Leave a Comment

The Academy will be closed for summer break Monday June 30 through Saturday July 5. Classes will resume Monday July 7. These dates are marked on the Class Schedule.

Please also note that all Saturday classes will break for July and August. The last Saturday classes for the summer will be this Saturday, 6/28. They will resume after Labor Day.

Have a safe and fun break!

***CORRECTION***
There will NOT be Youth Kenpo classes Saturday 6/28, only 8:30am Krav Maga. After 6/28, all Saturday classes go on break until the fall. Apologies for the confusion.
