THE TRADITIONAL MARTIAL ARTIST’S PROGRESS

As a traditional martial artist your own progress within your art is measured by your personal behavior and attitude.

While the state of your own mind, body and spirit is willingly noticeable in the way you act within your traditional martial art. Demonstrating sincere attitude, which translates into sincere action, it is therefore important within the traditional Dojo, as it will flow onto your life’s pathway.

The meaning of “Ryu” in our Karate Do Shuri Te,
Translated by O Sensei Takahashi indeed means;
“The Flow of Knowledge.”
When you seek out true knowledge of your traditional martial art from your Sensei’s, you will without a doubt be ask to demonstrate sincere attitude towards your Sensei and your fellow Karate - ka.

To quote an old martial art proverb;
“The strongest of steel is tempered in the hottest of fires”
From time to time as a student you may not fully understand at first, the methods of the traditional instruction that is been given by your Sensei.

Therefore by orientalising your mind to understand the first step, therefore the true traditional martial arts are indeed a form of “Self-Discipline and Respect”.
Formerly, by adopting this traditional attitude of humble attitude, therefore undoubtedly assist your learning and progress in your art. Demonstrating “Sincere Attitude and Sincere Actions,” therefore will illustrate you to your Sensei that you are indeed meeting him “halfway”, demonstrating you are without a doubt, a worthy student to teach.

With Respect.
Garry O'Connor - Hanshi.
Principal Instructor.
