Effort is the number one rule of our academies. It means hard work and to never give up. In the academy and outside, students and instructors alike must put forth 100% effort in every endevour.

Respect is one of the founding principles of martial arts training. To honor others, as well as, oneself is important in all aspects of training. One should demonstrate respect in all words and actions in the dojo.

The ability to govern ones words and actions is one of the most valuable skills attained from martial arts training. Students and instructors alike should strive to be in constant control of their words and actions when interacting with others inside the dojo and in everyday life.

This is one of the most important rules to me personally. As someone who has devoted their life to the spreading and betterment of the martial arts, I strive to be loyal to all my students and people who have placed their trust in me. Students should try to show loyalty to their instructors, dojo family, and chosen system at all times.

Discipline can come from within and from without. It is a motivating factor in helping us in our endeavors in training and in bettering ourselves as martial artists, as well as, human beings. Discipline yourself and the need for exterior discipline will gradually fade away.
