Bushido….one of the most important ideas in martial arts

BUSHIDO
​​
​In ancient times, Samurai Warriors were dedicated servants and protectors. During turbulent times they served their leaders unselfishly and would literally sacrifice their lives to protect them. The Samurai were highly respected for the discipline and dedication they displayed to their training and purpose in life. Besides developing great skill and courage, they were highly regarded for their code of conduct and the respectful ways they lived their lives.
 
BUSHIDO is the term used to describe this code of conduct the Samurai lived by.  It dealt with their mannerisms as well as their habits of daily protocol… it was their way of life. Because of this code, they were well respected and honored warriors in their villages and amongst their countrymen.
 
In modern society and current times, BUSHIDO can also serve as a similar code of conduct… a way to take the respect, discipline and protocol that is displayed in the dojo and transfer it into our daily lives. Showing courtesy and respect in school, at home, and a kind and caring attitude at work and friendliness toward our neighbors.    
 
We all know that being polite, well mannered and respectful of others is the proper way to act. However, it takes daily practice and discipline to make it a habit.  
 
Practicing your Martial Arts manners and protocol on a regular basis makes for better relationships in all aspects of our lives. Avoid the use of vulgar language and never be abusive, offensive or rude.  
 
As members of an Elite Team, we all must act and behave as leaders and positive examples of living our lives as modern-day Martial Arts Warriors.
