Late Fees, Failed Payments, & Delinquent Memberships

Late Fees & Late Payments: You may incur a late payment fee of $25.00 after 3 days from your payment date. There will be an additional $25/mo late fee for every month your payment is late. If you need to make arrangements for a delayed payment, you must communicate this to the school administrator via email or in-person and make arrangements agreed upon by the school administrator and the school. A late payment fee of $25.00 may still be applied.

Late Payment Notifications If your account payments are delinquent due to failed payments for any reasons that prevent payment, you will receive an automated email communication with information about your failed payment. If you do not update your payment account (credit/debit card) on file with a valid account, then your account will fall into delinquent status and may incur a $25.00 late fee after 3 days of your payment due date.

Final Notice and Membership Termination If you do not reply or communicate to any failed payment communication emails or in-person, then we will send a final email communication within 7 days with a final warning informing you that we will terminate your membership from our system entirely within a 24 hour period of this final communication notice.

Your membership is only valid for 30 days after your last valid payment. Prices are subject to change if your membership is terminated and you need to register a new membership at the current membership rates.

Fees: You may be charged a late fee of $25.00 and for any days you participated in training during any period your payment did not successfully process if you do not reply or update your account with a valid payment method prior to any membership drop from our system.

Probationary Status & Late Fees

We reserve the right to apply a probationary status on a membership if it falls into “delinquent status” (experiences any failed or late payments).

Any students who have memberships that fall into “delinquent status” which violates our standard late fee terms and conditions policy (late fees applied after 3 days), will fall into a probationary status where we reserve the right to apply a probationary late fee policy after only 24 hours (instead of the 3 days) of any failed or late payment on the account.

We reserve the right to, and may send any outstanding debts to a collection agency if there is not agreed upon resolution in a timely fashion.

If you need to temporarily hold/pause your membership due to injury, illness, travel, school, work, etc.

How to:

  1. Send us a formal email request at least 24 hours before the start date of your hold and/or next payment
  2. Provide your start and end dates of the hold period
  3. Reason for the hold.

Hold Request Confirmation

Hold Change Request

If you need to return sooner or later than your original hold date period, please email us a request with the new start and end dates.

Hold Payment Date Shift

Note: Putting a hold on your account may shift your payment day. Any days paid for within a 30 day membership period will be prorated based on the date difference.

Example: If your payment day is, April 1st and your hold period is April 20 to May 1, you have 10 remaining paid days in the month of April (30 days – 20 days). Your new payment day will be May 1 + 10 days which will make your new payment day from here on out, May 11.

Hold Period Limits

Temporary holds can only be applied to a full month* (30 day period). You will need to request a hold on your membership prior to attending any classes for that calendar month.

A student/member cannot have more than one 2 consecutive month period hold within a 5 month window. If you need to request a hold for more than two 2 consecutive month periods within a 5 month window, then you will need to cancel your membership and register for a new membership at the current retail rates when you return and want to train again.

How to request a hold




Membership Cancellation

If you need to cancel your membership entirely, please email us with a formal request to cancel your membership at least 15 days prior to the date of desired cancellation and stop payment.

You will need to submit a formal request for cancelation of your membership 15 days prior to your membership payment date and before attending any classes for your membership monthly period.

If you attend one or more classes and then you have to cancel your membership, unfortunately, we CANNOT issue any refunds or credits once you start attending for that month period. You can cancel your membership for the following month.

Cancelation Request Confirmation

Failure to attend the Classes does not relieve you, the student, of the obligation to pay the full tuition for the membership period in which you are currently enrolled. A formal cancelation request and confirmation is required or your membership will continue to be active, auto-renew and charge to your payment account.

How to request a cancellation

Note: You are responsible for communicating to us via email or speaking directly with the school administrator to cancel your membership 15 days prior to cancellation date.

Safety & Health

Injury Liability Release


Technique and Drilling Safety

Awareness


⚠️ Tapping Out – Important!

Tapping out is the primary way to communicate to your opponent that you are submitting to their attack and or cannot defend or proceed anymore. You may be caught in a submission (joint-lock, choke, etc.) during any phase of our classes (warm-ups, drills, technique or rolling).

How to Tap Out

There are two ways to communicate tapping out to your opponent:


When Your Opponent Taps Out

Note: Some attacks do require a more controlled release in order to prevent injury, like an omoplata, which should be released in a reversed direction from the attack in order not to injure the opponent’s arm or shoulder.

Rolling (sparring) Safely

You want to ensure you and your partner leave healthy.

Advanced Submissions (Leg Locks: Heel Hooks, Toe Holds, Ankle Locks, Knee Bars)

There are some advanced level techniques that pose higher injury risks due to the sensitive nature and more vulnerability for physical injury if not executed properly, or if the opponent is unaware of the proper defense & escape, or refrains from tapping in a timely fashion.

Leg Lock techniques are part of our program and our allowed, but we have strict rules on the usage of these attacks in class, which belt levels can perform them and who they can be performed on.

The following rules apply for sparring/rolling:


If you are caught in any of these submissions, we advise tapping-out early to avoid any injuries, as these submissions can do damage before you actually feel it.

*When these submissions are the topic of instruction, they are okay to perform during technique and instruction.
