Edinburgh jitsu has always been proud that we offer training in a safe environment. Covid-19 is no different.

We strongly encourage all members to take up vaccination when appropriate to do so. This is for safety of their training
partners as well as themselves.

Members can train non-contact at any session if they prefer, and the sessions on Tuesdays are designated as days when those more anxious about training can attend.

All coming to Tuesday sessions are requested to have undertaken a negative
lateral flow test prior to arrival.

Always inform the sensei for that session if you have any
concerns, or further questions.

Members must not train if they have been unwell or classed as at risk of covid exposure based on current government guidance.

Everyone attending has a personal responsibility to ensure the safety of the club. Anyone believed to be behaving irresponsibly will be asked to leave that session. As with any unacceptable behaviour, if it is a recurrent issue, ongoing membership will be reviewed.
