It is just as important for high graded students as it is for low graded students to obey. Etiquette is used to show respect to the club, instructors, students, and Karate-Do. Etiquette makes us aware of what is going on around us as well as reminding us of our responsibility in being part of Karate-Do. Etiquette in its simplist form, a common courtesy - a basic feature of life which is noticeably missing from society today. If you are unsure about any dojo etiquette please ask a senior member of the dojo. http://www.midletonrenshukan.com/viewpage.php?memid=10 http://www.midletonrenshukan.com/viewpage.php?memid=10 2009-05-05 20:43:39 Strive to perfect character, Defend the paths of truth, Guard against rash courage, Foster the spirit of effort, Honour the rules of etiquette http://www.midletonrenshukan.com/viewpage.php?memid=9 http://www.midletonrenshukan.com/viewpage.php?memid=9 2009-05-05 20:34:47 Gichin Funakoshi was born in Shuri, Okinawa in 1868. As a boy, he was trained by two famous masters of that time. Each trained him in a different Okinawan martial art. From Yasutsune Azato he learned Shuri-te. From Yasutsune Itosu, he learned Naha-te. It would be the melding of these two styles that would one day become Shotokan karate.
