To ensure a safe and respectful environment:

What to Wear/Not to Wear

Wear: Comfortable athletic clothing. Rash Guards are recommended. Spats, leggings or shorts.

Not to Wear: Jewelry, watches, or any loose clothing that might get caught during activities. T-shirts. Any clothing with zippers, buttons, sparkles, or anything that sticks out or can hurt others.

What to Bring Every Day:

• Belts: This is mostly for Kids! Don't forget to bring your belts so you can get your promotions on time! Belts are also sometimes used for games. Be sure to have your belt.

 

• Water Bottles: Staying hydrated is crucial, so make sure to bring a water bottle. We have a water bottle refill station. The refill station is for filling water bottles. It is not a water fountain, so please do not place your mouth directly on it.
