• Family members are encouraged to support their child in class by applauding good efforts. However we do not permit coaching from anyone other than the instructor.
• Testing is mandatory at all levels. Students are required to attend testing in an approved gi with required Academy patches.
• RCJ Machado Jiu-Jitsu is one of the nation’s most respected jiu-jitsu academies. As Such, we look for our students to help keep the Academy clean and clutter free.
