The Rule Book 

The club rules exist so everyone is treated fairly.

They give people a standard to live up to.

The rules encourage good standards of respect, safety and the martial art Way.

Satori Ju-jitsu Club believes that all members should be proud of their club and proud of the tradition to which they have become a part.

And that the club is proud of them.

All sensei are registered with Milton Keynes council as club coaches.

Code of Conduct

  1. When you train with other club members you do so as partners not adversaries, you are each responsible for the safety of your partner
  2. Mat Awareness. Before performing a technique make sure there is sufficient room to complete it so that it finishes on the mat and without endangering yourself or others.
  3. Any injury suffered before a training session should be reported to your instructor. Any injury received during training must be reported immediately to the instructor in charge of the session.
  4. No locks or chokes will be applied to junior members. When applying locks or chokes to adult members do so slowly and progressively in a controlled manner.
  5. Sleeper holds must never be practised.
  6. When your instructor says Yamme, Rei! you must stop, bow and listen to the instruction.
  7. Only perform the techniques your instructor has shown you. Variations are only shown by an instructor.
  8. Show respect to your instructor and fellow ju-jitsuka at all times. No fooling around!
  9. Ju-jitsu methods and techniques are not to be demonstrated outside the dojo.
  10. Members must not abuse or misuse their knowledge of Ju-jitsu.
  11. Arriving late is to be avoided, but if you do arrive late, wait at the side of the mat until invited on by an instructor.
  12. Bow when entering or leaving the dojo, when going on or coming off the mat, before and after practise with a fellow ju-jitsuka and when addressing your instructor.
  13. Address all black belts as sensei.
  14. Do not interrupt your instructor when he or she is instructing someone else, unless it is urgent.
  15. Do not leave the dojo without an instructor’s permission.
  16. Bad language, ignoring sensei's instruction or impudence will not be tolerated in the dojo.
  17. Smoking, or chewing gum is not allowed in the dojo. No alcohol can be consumed prior to training.
  18. Ju-jitsu involves close contact with others. Personal hygiene is important. Clean hands, feet and clothing. Fingernails and toenails kept clean and short.
  19. Dress code will be observed at all times. No jewellery or watches to be worn on the mat. Ear studs are removed or covered. Women should wear a modesty tee-shirt when necessary.
  20. Any conviction for an act of violence must be notified to your instructor and may result in suspension or termination of membership.
  21. Above all else it is vital that each practitioner shows respect and friendship to their partner. This means working with each other as partners, not adversaries. All techniques should be performed in fellowship. This ensures the safe learning of technique in a true martial art manner.

SERIOUS or PERSISTENT FAILURE TO OBSERVE THIS CODE OF CONDUCT MAY RESULT IN YOUR MEMBERSHIP BEING SUSPENDED or TERMINATED.
