From where should you retrieve your gear bag if you need it during class?

• A. From the teacher's desk
• B. From the hallway rack
• C. From a shelf in the locker room or in a locker
• D. From the mat corner

Answer: (C)

Having your gear stored in a designated locker or on a shelf in the locker room keeps the practice space safe and organized. When you know exactly where your bag lives, you can grab what you need without stepping onto the mats or weaving through other students, which reduces tripping hazards and classroom distractions. It also helps keep equipment clean and accounted for, since lockers are the proper place to store gear. Choosing other spots, like the teacher’s desk, a hallway rack, or the mat corner, tends to create clutter or disruption and risks losing items. So, for quick, safe access during class, retrieve your bag from the locker room shelf or your locker and return it there when you’re finished.
