STUDENT CREED

(Recited at the beginning of class)

I will build true confidence through knowledge of the mind, honesty of the heart, and strength of the body.

I will offer friendship to others and strive to build a strong community.

I will, as a black belt, win the battle within myself and never fight to achieve selfish ends.

DOJO KUN (SCHOOL CREED)

(Recited at the end of class)

Karate begins and ends with COURTESY.

Actions have CONSEQUENCES.

We lead by EXAMPLE.

We are RESPONSIBLE.

Therefore there is no excuse for BAD MANNERS.
