- I will teach not only martial arts motions and techniques, but also the responsibility and purpose of the art, presenting the whole meaning of martial arts.
- I will not teach the student to ?ght, but will teach them to be responsible for their actions and to use their skills when their life or the lives of the people they love are threatened.
- I will encourage all to study the martial arts and to develop the positive character in themselves that is often hidden.
- I will teach students to love themselves and to be proud of who they are.
