COMMIT Code of Ethics &
Zero Tolerance

COMMIT to You Fitness Instructor Code of Ethics
and Professional Conduct

Be patient and courteous.

Show grace and provide courtesy to your peers at any moment. We are all on the same mission to grow the COMMIT Community.

Be inclusive.

We welcome and support people of all backgrounds and identities. This includes, but is not limited to, members of any sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, race, ethnicity, culture, national origin, social and economic class, educational level, color, immigration status, sex, age, size, family status, political belief, religion, and mental and physical ability.

Be considerate.

We all depend on each other to produce the best work environment we can as a company. Your decisions will affect clients and colleagues, and you should take those consequences into account when making decisions.

Be respectful.

We won't all agree all the time, but disagreement is no excuse for disrespectful behavior. We will all experience frustration from time to time, but we cannot allow that frustration become personal attacks. An environment where people feel uncomfortable or threatened is not a productive or creative one.

Choose your words carefully.

Always conduct yourself professionally. Be kind to others. Do not insult or put down others. Harassment and exclusionary behavior aren't acceptable. This includes but is not limited to:

Threats of violence.
Discriminatory jokes and language.
Sharing sexually explicit or violent material via electronic devices or other means.
Personal insults, especially those using racist or sexist terms.
Unwelcome sexual attention.
Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior.

Repeated harassment of others.

In general, if someone asks you to stop something, then stop. When we disagree, try to understand why. Differences of opinion and disagreements are mostly unavoidable. What is important is that we resolve disagreements and differing views constructively.

Our differences can be our strengths.

We can find strength in diversity. Different people have different perspectives on issues, and that can be valuable for solving problems or generating new ideas. Being unable to understand why someone holds a viewpoint doesn’t mean that they’re wrong. Don’t forget that we all make mistakes and blaming each other doesn’t get us anywhere.

The following is a guideline that is definitive in how Commit to You Fitness, L.L.C conducts itself as a company. All rules and regulations are to be followed and any reports of misconduct will be investigated privately between the parties involved. All reported matters are to remain confidential. A final determination may lead to an immediate release from any formal contract between Commit to You Fitness, L.L.C and any of its affiliates, provided, all the evidence is clear. Commit to You Fitness, L.L.C does not need to provide any warning before revoking the license to teach and/or any other formal contract.

COMMIT's Zero Tolerance Polcy

COMMIT Dance Fitness’s Zero Tolerance Policy is part of our commitment to providing a safe and dignified work environment for all employees and independent contractors, also known as a COMMIT Dance Fitness Instructor, COMMIT Trainer, COMMIT Presenter, COMMIT Creative Team Member, COMMIT Ambassador, and a COMMIT Core Team Member, regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, disability, religion, or any other aspect of their identity.

All employees and independent contractors are responsible for conducting themselves in a professional and inclusive manner, and disciplinary action will be taken in situations where an employee and independent contractor’s behavior violates this expectation. The Policy covers harassment, bullying, and discrimination both in and out of all COMMIT Dance Fitness classrooms, corporate events, and non-corporate events where a COMMIT Instructor or Student is attending with the understanding that it is a COMMIT Dance Fitness related and provides a standard for addressing allegations of inappropriate behavior, ensuring fairness and equal treatment.

A message from your Founder and Co-Owners

COMMIT Dance Fitness was founded on the idea of creating a safe place for dance fitness students and instructors. To be a place where they can be their most authentic selves. It is important that we protect that innocence within us because society is hard enough on us that we shouldn't be doing it to each other.

With all the violence and hate that is being spread in the world through social media and the news we want COMMIT to be the one place where you experience is the opposite. That means that we have to make a conscious effort everyday to be a part of the change. A conscious effort to be the better version of ourselves.

We do not and will not tolerate hate, violence, discrimination, or any form of harassment. We want to make this very clear. We take this seriously. It is probably the only time you will see us be serious. We do not take these claims lightly and will do our part to provide a fair opportunity for both sides to give their experience.

Thank you for trusting us and for continuing provide an inclusive and diverse community that supports each other through everything life has thrown our way.

Sincerely,

Donna Black, Founder
Jessica Black, Chief of Operations

Jessica Quande, Chief of Retail and Marketing
