What will happen to my membership?

​

On 1 July, 2020 we officially transitioned into our Modified period and since we are unable to provide full Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai programs, members will have the choice of either...

​

1. opting-in by reactivating their memberships.

2. purchasing a modified membership.

3. continuing to suspend their memberships until such time conditions return to relative normality.

​

Please enquire at info@famafit.com for more details.

​

When will FaMA be back to relatively normal operations?

​

Hopefully soon but this all depends on the government’s rules and regulations. Please make sure to check your email for FaMA’s latest updates.

Are we allowed to use the shower facilities?

​

Yes but you will have to bring your own towel. Showers, locker room and keys will be sanitized throughout the day.

Will you still have laundry services?

​

Unfortunately, laundry service is suspended at this time.

Can we use the water dispenser?

​

For your safety the water dispenser and use of the lounge are suspended until further notice so please bring along your own water.

How is FaMA avoiding cross-contamination?

​

• Practicing social distancing within the academy.

• Members will have their own equipment assigned to them during their class. There will be no sharing and all equipment will be cleaned and sanitized after each class.

• The mat area will be cleaned and sanitized after each class and a deep, thorough cleaning of the academy will be done at the end of every day.

• Members will leave the premises in intervals.

​

Do we have to wear masks while we are training?

​

According to SportSG’s guidelines, we require members to wear a mask in the academy at all times except when participating in class.

How are you keeping the FaMA Team safe?

​

• The staff has been separated into three teams to avoid interaction between them.

• All staff have their temperatures taken at a higher frequency.

• All staff will be washing and sanitizing their hands on a regular basis.

What classes are being offered at this time?

​

We will be teaching modified Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, FaMA Fit and Kids Martial Arts within the government regulations and circumstances.

​

Will there be physical contact in the classes?

​

Physical contact will be kept at minimal only for Muay Thai as stated in MOH and SportsSG’s guidelines for transient contact such as kicking and punching are acceptable. Therefore padwork with the instructor can be done while remaining socially distant from other members. However, BJJ and clinching in Muay Thai is still not permissible during this phase as grappling in general is not allowed. Therefore, BJJ class will focus on solo drills.

Can I train with a partner?

​

Yes, as long as you and your partner live in the same household.

Will FaMA be providing private lessons?

​

Yes, but subject to time and space availability. Please enquire with your instructor.
