Operational Criteria

Hall Standards

Every affiliated salle enforces identical safety protocols, certified sparring blades, and technical baselines to ensure martial integrity across all borders.

Protective Equipment

Certified Steel Feders

Floor Discipline

All free sparring requires certified 350N or 800N puncture-resistant fencing jackets, reinforced throat protection, hard plastic joint shells, and heavy sparring mittens.

Blades must comply with strict flex thresholds, rolled spatulated tips, and historical balance parameters. Unvetted steel or unground burrs are barred from the floor.

Bouts proceed with calibrated force, strict calibration calls, and zero tolerance for uncontrolled striking. Respect for training partners governs every exchange.

Prospective students and visiting practitioners may contact chapter leads directly for hall schedules, equipment hire, and beginner induction dates.
