Mat etiquette is highly emphasised at Legacy Jiu Jitsu Brookvale. Students are expected to maintain proper hygiene, with clean and dry gi's, trimmed fingernails, tied-back and clean hair, and no jewellery to prevent injuries and the spread of infections. Respect for the academy, fellow students, and teachers is paramount. Students are required to bow before stepping on the mat as a sign of respect and to prepare their minds for training.
Swearing and profanities are prohibited on the mats.
Punctuality is valued at Legacy Jiu Jitsu Brookvale, and students are encouraged to arrive a few minutes early to sessions to change and prepare themselves for training. Phones should be turned off or put on silent during classes to maintain focus.
During training sessions, students are expected to maintain self-awareness and good posture. Senior belts have the right of way during crowded classes, and students should make room for them during sparring sessions. It's also crucial to keep the mats clean, as students often have their faces on them. Shoes should be worn to the bathroom to keep feet clean at all times.
