Training zones and equipment are checked before use.
Partner match
Size, experience and confidence guide pairing.
Contact level
Intensity stays within the stated drill.
Professional scope
Medical or safeguarding concerns are referred appropriately.

INSTRUCTOR QUESTIONS
Know who is teaching.
Are instructor profiles editable?
Yes. Names, experience, images and programme assignments are demo content editable in WordPress.
Does rank alone qualify someone to coach?
No. Teaching, safeguarding, communication and programme-specific competence also matter.
Can students request an instructor?
Requests can be considered, but scheduling and programme suitability determine the final assignment.
Are background checks handled by the theme?
No. Compliance, checks and staff records are business responsibilities and should use suitable systems.
