Risk Assessment

ADVISORY OF RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES


Safety is not the sole responsibility of instructors and staff. Everyone in class is responsible for their own safety and the safety of those around them. All students have the right and responsibility to excuse themselves from any exercise they believe will be harmful to them. All students must evaluate each situation in the context of their skill and current physical condition, and conduct each drill in a manner that is safe. All students have the responsibility to train and conduct themselves in a manner that helps all students and instructors remain safe.

ASSUMPTION OF RESPONSIBILITIES AND RISK


Martial Arts training, boxing and fitness classes are potentially dangerous activities. Bumps, bruises, scrapes, scratches and soreness are commonplace, and most students will encounter this sort of minor injury from time to time in their training. More serious injuries are possible, including sprains strains, twists, cramps, cuts, scrapes, contusions and injuries of similar magnitude, and the student can be expected to encounter these injuries frequently. The possibility of more serious injuries exists, including fractures, broken bones, tom ligaments, though not all students encounter such serious injuries. There remains, despite safety precautions, the remote possibility of serious injury, crippling or death.

NOTICE AND CONSENT TO PHYSICAL CONTACT


Martial arts training and boxing involves a wide variety of skills. While practicing these skills, students may have contact with any portion of the body with varying degrees of force. I understand the nature of physical contact in martial arts training and boxing, and I understand that I have the right to immediately withdraw from any exercise or drill in which the contact of any party seems beyond the scope of training and makes me uncomfortable. I agree to abide by the school etiquette in all manners pertaining to training, and I shall not in any way conduct myself inappropriately.
