Always work to better ourselves, on and off the mat.
Be faithful
Stay loyal to our instructors, our dojo, and our values.
Endeavor
Train with spirit, push through challenges, never give up.
Respect others
Show courtesy, humility, and honor to everyone.
Refrain from violent behavior
Use our skills responsibly, with control and purpose.
