A martial artist is loyal to his dojo, his team and his teacher.

There is a diference between a fitness gym and a dojo! There is a diference between someone who just works out sometime or a martial artist. Loyalty is one of the eight virtues of the Bushido Code (The Way of the Warrior). It is even more relevant in todays fast world and busy life. One must realize that being a member in a dojo , enters a new univers. A place where we are training our body but also our mind and soul. It is not enough just to pay a monthly membership, that only will not make you a dojo student. This is something that some students must reflect on it! Osu!
