How to behave in the Dojo
"The Dojo tags are rules of conduct designed to assist the proper functioning of the Dojo. "Many of these rules are common sense, many are simply good manners. Most are modeled on the Japanese traditions, the home of modern Karate. "In Kyokushin dojos around the world, there is a strict adherence to tradition, yet it is also flexible to change to something more appropriate where required.
Attitudes vary from one nation to another, so changes to the rules also exist. There is no justification for laziness, nor by the indifference of the rules because of this. "The dojo is a sacred place, treat it as such. It is not merely a gym or even any old training center. "Take care and feel proud of his dojo, treat it the same way you treat any place of reverence.
"Karate is easily mistaken as a rough and demanding sport which not only serves another purpose than to teach its participants to hurt others in ways unpleasant.
"Nothing, except that the common rules of courtesy expressed in the rules of the dojo. Often a very advanced student familiar with the dojo and his companions, try to find humor in their indifference to the rules of the dojo.
