To keep everyone safe and informed, please read and complete this short agreement.

1. Understanding the Activity

I understand that training in martial arts, wrestling, and fitness involves physical contact, movement, and exercise.
I am in good health and capable of participating. If something doesn’t feel right or safe, I’ll pause and let a coach know right away.

2. Acknowledging the Risks

I understand that bumps, bruises, or other injuries can happen in any physical activity.
Serious injuries are uncommon but possible. I accept these risks and agree to train responsibly.

3. Responsibility & Care

I understand, however, that accidents can still happen, and I take personal responsibility for my own well-being (or my child’s) during training.
