KMW Safety Briefing

​​​

Welcome to our Krav Maga school! Your safety and the safety of those around you is our top priority. Please take a moment to read and understand these important guidelines before training.

​​

1. General Safety Guidelines

  • Always follow the instructor’s directions and training structure.

  • Respect your training partners and maintain control during drills.

  • If you have any pre-existing injuries or medical conditions, inform the instructor before class.

  • Stop training immediately if you feel unwell, dizzy, or in pain—safety comes first.

  • No jewellery, watches, or sharp objects should be worn during training to prevent injury.

  • Always use Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) if you have it. It is expected that all students have and wear their PPE during training. Choosing not to use PPE is your personal decision, but you assume responsibility for that choice.

  • Trial students will be provided with protective equipment for drills. New students are required to obtain a groin guard within their first month of training. After this period, mandatory protective equipment includes a head guard, gum shield, and boxing gloves.

2. Training Etiquette

  • Arrive on time and be ready for training with appropriate clothing and protective gear.

  • Keep fingernails and toenails trimmed to avoid scratching others.

  • Always maintain good personal hygiene and wear clean training gear.

  • Respect personal space and do not use excessive force beyond the drill’s intent.

3. Controlled Contact and Sparring

  • Contact is an essential part of Krav Maga, but it must always be controlled and appropriate for the drill.

  • Do not escalate drills into uncontrolled aggression.

  • When sparring, use the agreed level of contact and wear appropriate protective gear.

  • If you or your partner feel uncomfortable, stop and inform the instructor immediately.

4. Use of Equipment

  • Always check training equipment for damage before use.

  • Use focus pads, shields, and weapons replicas responsibly.

  • If unsure how to use any equipment, ask the instructor.

  • Return all equipment to its designated place after use.

5. Emergency Procedures

  • In case of an injury, notify the instructor immediately.

  • First aid kits are available on-site; the instructor is first-aid trained.

  • If an evacuation is necessary, follow the instructor’s guidance and exit the building calmly.

6. Mindset and Attitude

  • Krav Maga is for self-defence and personal development, not aggression or intimidation.

  • Train with discipline, focus, and respect at all times.

  • Encourage and support your training partners—everyone is here to learn and improve.

7. Declaration

By participating in this class, you acknowledge the following:

"I understand that I am engaging in an activity that involves physical contact, carries a risk of injury, and demands a high level of physical exertion. If I have answered 'Yes' to any relevant medical or health-related questions, I will inform the instructor prior to commencing my trial or regular class."
