Seek Perfection of Character~
The Dojo Kun are the rules of the dojo that have been passed down from Okinawan Karate Masters to the present for us as a guide to correct Budo Spirit and how to lead our life in earnest.
Seek Perfection of Character.
(Hitotsu !!! Jinkaku Kansei Ni Tsuto Muru Koto)
This means that the art of Karate is more than just physical. All beginners, especially the young, are taught the importance of character building through discipline and rigorous training. For the beginner, the character building process begins with the perfecting of techniques through repetition. The spirit to fight will be achieved as one gains more confidence through development of stronger techniques. We train hard to develop a strong spirit, not only to fight but also to overcome personal problems especially in times of weakness. Developing these spiritual values is most difficult. But once achieved they will provide a lifetime benefit of inner strength and peace.
