Hello Everyone,

Our new wushu carpet is officially in! A huge thank you to every volunteer who came out on Saturday. We could not have done it without you.

Our old carpet carried us through more than 10 years of jumps, landings, and falls. We want this one to last just as long, and the biggest thing that decides that is how we care for it.

Wushu Shoes Only on the Carpet

Effective immediately, only Wushu shoes are allowed on the carpet. No sneakers, street shoes, or anything worn outside. Outside shoes track in dirt, grit, and (soon) winter road salt, which damages the carpet and wears it out years early.

  • Arrive in your outside shoes. Change into your Wushu shoes at the edge of the carpet.

  • Wushu shoes stay indoor-only. If they’ve walked across the parking lot, they count as outside shoes. Carry them in and put them on here.

  • Forgot or can’t wear Wushu shoes? Get approval from Coach first. Approved alternatives must be kept for indoor use only.

Thank you for helping us make this a habit!

Carpet Care

  • No food or drinks. Water bottles stay off the carpet.

  • Parents, siblings, and visitors: please stay off the carpet unless necessary.

Why It Matters

The carpet is what allows our athletes to jump, land, and train safely. Taking care of it is part of the integrity we practice every day: respecting our space, our equipment, and each other.

Thank You, Install Crew 🥹
