REI NI HAJIMARI REI NI OWARU
The Japanese martial arts start and finish with the BOW. This concept is an integral part of “BUDO” (or Martial Art) and without it, Budo can be poor like a street-fighting. The karateka, has to respect this ritual to improve himself. THE MEANING OF THE BOW AT THE BEGINNING AND THE END OF THE LESSON
. The Dojo is a training place and is like where karateka can train both the spirit and the techniques of the Budo. You haven't to enter in the Dojo, with contrast or superficiality because it could be cause of dangerous accidents. When you are in the Dojo you must have good purposes and the rei is the focal point of this soul-state. Whit the first bow, the pupil ought to have a deep respect for his Sensei and demonstrate it with the rei. In the second bow, just before the beginning of the lesson, the karateka promises to training with intense and good prposes. With last rei, at the end of the lesson, the pupil shows his satisfaction for the training
. Dojo Kun
Reisetsu O Mamori (Stick to the rules). In the dojo good etiquette must be observed by the following rules
Shingi O Omanji (A student must have loyalty to his instructor). This is the most important thing in Martial Arts. It is not possible for someone to change his style in Japanese Martial Arts - people who do so cannot learn the correct etiquette and spirit of Martial Arts
. Jojitsu Ni Oberezu (Teachers and students are not all one). Outside the Dojo you can be friendly with your Sensei but do not take advantage of this friendship
. Shinkenmi Ni Tesseyo (Be serious in your efforts). No flippancy, chattering, smoking, gum chewing, eating or drinking in the Dojo. Concentrate solely on Karate and train hard in everything you do. The dojo is not a social gathering hall and visitors as well as students shall respect the rules and Maxims
