Taekwondo Rules
General guidelines to maintain a positive "black belt" attitude
Do's:
- Memorize the Songahm Spirit of Taekwondo and live by it.
- Always pay attention to your instructor in class.
- Address your instructors and all black belts as sir or ma'am.
- Answer all questions with YES Sir. or YES Ma'am with respect.
- Answer up- say "YES Sir/Ma'am" when asked to follow a directive by your instructor or whom ever is assigned as the leader of the group.
- Trim all toenails and fingernails and have a clean body and uniform as a courtesy to other students.
- Bring your required equipment to every class.
- Put your name on all of your equipment and on your bag.
- If possible, always let your instructor know ahead of time if you are unable to make a class.
Do Not's:
- Do not run, play or talk loudly in the lobby or main practice areas.
- Do not chew gum in class.
- Do not wiggle, fidget, fall down, move around, or otherwise display undeisciplined, unthinking or inconsiderate body language in class. Once you have memorized the Songahm Spririt of Taekwondo, you know that in class you are "developing your personal discipline and a high level of personal spirit in order to bring out the best in yourself and others."
- Do not spar without instructor supervision; do not spar without wearing all safety gear.
- Do not place your belt, that you have spent so much energy earning, on the floor or ground... your belt represents the respect that you've earned.
