2. Treat everyone with respect. Since this is a fitness class, minor discipline problems will result in extra fitness work. If the student does not want to do the extra work they will be referred to the office for further punishment. Any major discipline problems will be an automatic referral to the office. If the discipline interferes with the student workout, then they will have their grade lowered.

4. No gum, food, or drinks during class time.
5. The locker room will be available before and after class. If the student feels the need to use the shower I will allow some extra time.

No cut off shirts or muscle shirts. Shorts must be around your waist(not hips) and go down to your middle finger when standing straight and arms hanging down.
