DRESS CODE

MMA and Jiu Jitsu involve dynamic movement and a high level of person-to-person contact. The dress code is designed to prevent injury, promote good hygiene, and ensure a comfortable training environment for everyone.

General Dress Code

No shoes beyond the reception area. Please remove your outside footwear within the reception area. (sport-specific footwear unused outside will be permitted on the mats)
Always wear a top. Shirtlessness is not permitted outside of the designated changing areas.
No see-through clothing. Our lights are bright, so be sure to check your attire beforehand. Keep in mind how much your garments stretch during athletic movement.

Dress Code On The Mats

No pockets, zipper, buttons, or otherwise obstructive clothing attachments which could lead to injury.
Tops must cover your chest, shoulders, and midriff. No tank tops, v-necks, or crop tops.
Bottoms must be double-layered. Compression shorts and spats must not be see-through and must be worn with tight-fitting undergarments.
No excessively loose clothing. Loose t-shirts must be tucked in.
No jewelry. Please remove items which could damage the mats or injure a training partner. (reasonable exceptions made for items of religious or personal significance)

Points on Hygene
