Kids' Classes Dismissal Process

1. Once the class has bowed out, and the students have received hand sanitizer, the dismissal process can begin.

2. Dismissals begin with the students at the back of the class and move towards the front.  Exceptions can be made if there are siblings, who can be dismissed together at the discretion of the Instructor.

3. Children will collect their belongings from the changerooms and then will proceed to the entrance to collect their footwear.

4. Children will then proceed directly to the bench where they will sit and put on their shoes and outerwear.

5. Once they have their shoes and outwear on, they are to remain seated and watch for their parents/guardians out the window.

6. Once all children are in the penalty box area, the entrance door can be unlocked and the next class can begin to enter.

7. Once a child sees their parent/guardian, they are to put up their hand, indicating to the instructor that their parent is present at the exit.

8. The instructor will release children to their parent/guardian and ensure the parent/guardian has them in their custody. 

9. Once all children have been released to their parents, the exit door should be locked.

General Rules And Guidelines

• Children should only leave the mats at the direction of an instructor.  Any child that attempts to leave without permission will be returned to their spot and will have to wait until an instructor releases them.

• Should the main instructor dismissing children be tied up, other instructors or helpers should step in to keep the dismissal process flowing.

• All children should be released through the penalty box door only.

• No more than 3 children should be collecting their shoes at one time.

• The instructor manning the exit should be dictating the order in which children are released, not the children.

• Siblings should be released together.

• No child should be released unless they are seated and waiting in a respectful manner.

• Any children crowding the exit, or attempting to exit without the direction of the instructor, should be instructed to find a seat on the bench and should not be released until they do so, regardless of whether their parent is at the door.

• Children should not be standing or walking around in the penalty box area during dismissal.

• Children should only be released when it is safe to do so and a parent/guardian is present to take custody. 

• If a child arrived at class on their own and will be leaving in the same manner (ie. walking, bike or roller blades), the instructor should release them when they feel it is safest to do so (ie. parking lot has emptied). 

1 on 1 Attendance Policy

To reflect the difficulty inherent with having to double enter appointments into Square so we can track student use of One on One opportunities, we are not going to do it. What we will do though is chart by exception. This means we will assume that everyone who books a one on one is attending their one on ones. If they are no show, you need to inform me in real time so that I can record it. I stress real time because best intentions rarely translates to follow through. Also, if I need to generate a report, I do not want to have to poll you all first to ensure the data is correct. I need to be able to count on the data I am mining out as being 100% accurate.

Can you guys please confirm that you agree with and understand this approach? I am good with discussion if someone has an idea that may be better. 

COVID-19 Protocols and Procedures

Sifu Rybak has created our first response to the current COVID-19 pandemic so please familiarize yourself with the protocols below and make sure you ask questions if there is something you do not understand. It is important that we comply 100% with these protocols and keep abreast as the document is updated as the pandemic evolves. Keep in mind that we are behind the eight ball on some of the supplies but as soon as we have them available, they will be on site.

Remember, our risk of contributing to the outbreak is very low as our class numbers are relatively low. Despite the vast majority of us being of low risk of complications from the contracting the virus, it is the more vulnerable people in our community and homes that we should be concerned about. We do not want to increase their risk of exposure so it is important that we follow these Health Canada guidelines.

I need every one of you to read and acknowledge that you have read the protocols by commenting below.
