Mandatory Sliders At Our Temple Fortune Dojo

Sunday 22 May 2022

Keeping our feet clean for both Adults and Children.

As many of you know, we now have Jiu Jitsu at Meiji Martial Arts. The art of Jiu Jitsu involves learning to harness your skills on the floor, so it is very important that our tatami mats are maintained at all times, to allow our Jiu Jitsu students to roll on the floor safely.

We therefore ask all students to bring a pair of sliders or flip flops with you to use on the hard floor and when using the bathrooms. This means you can take them off and walk on the tatami mat with clean feet (No Socks), thereby ensuring that you do not bring any dirt from the bathrooms or hard floor on to the mats, where people might make contact with their heads and faces.

This all helps to ensure a high level of safety and hygiene for instructors and students, and for us to continue delivering a great experience.
