Students may attend late to class; however they may be required to wait on the class sidelines until we can safely allow them to join the class ( warmup, or so as not to disrupt the the class training aspect already in progress),

​

Students who constantly attend classes late throughout the term may  be required to change classes or may be told that constant lateness will result in them being withdrawn from a scheduled grading due to them showing disrespect to the class instructor and fellow students with their disregard for the scheduled class start time. 

All students require the protective Head-Guard when purchasing their first SHMA uniform - these can be purchased from our website shop when ordering your first SHMA uniform.

The full protective sparring kit for females consists of:

Head-Guard, Hand Guards, Foot Guards & Shin Guards.

​

The full protective sparring kit for Males consists of:

Head-Guard, Hand Guards, Foot Guards, Shin Guards & a Groin Guard.

​

These Protective sparring kits are mandatory from 9th Gup (Yellow Stripe Belt). We recommend the full set to be purchased from 10th Gup (Yellow Belt); this will improve the students confidence and ability for light contacted controlled sparring and allow then to FREE SPAR.

Students may purchase the full set of sparring guards at any time before reaching either 10th or 9th Gup.

When purchasing the pads, the full set is required (you cannot buy the hands and foot guards) and start free sparring.
