Dojo Etiquette |
- When entering or leaving the dojo you should bow and say Osu
- Osu should also be used as an acknowledgement during training
- Students should refrain from swearing in the dojo
- Students should not misbehave or fool around - training can be
dangerous if instructions are not followed
- Dan grades should be addressed by their title i.e. Hanshi, Shihan,
Sensei, Senpai
- Nails should be kept short and clean so as to prevent injury to yourself
and your fellow Karateka
- Hair should be tied back in a soft hair band and not metal clips
- Although specticles can be worn during training they can not be worn during
sparring. Soft contact lenses can be worn but at the wearers risk
- Karate Gi should be washed and ironed prior to training. Belts must never be
washed they are symbolic of the effort that you have put into your training
- Should you be late for a training session you should wait in seiza at the back
of the class until acknowledged by the senior instructor
- When instructed to either demonstrate a technique or move to another part of the
dojo by a senior grade you should acknowledge them with Osu and then move
swiftly, do not amble
- If you are going to be absent from training for an extended period of time then
it is polite to inform the senior instructor
