The traditions we hold dearest in the dojo is the tradition of loyalty that is expressed in the three P's; To Protect, Preserve, and Pass on. When we are loyal to our mentors, teachers and friends and also loyal to our values we will naturally want to protect what we know to be true, preserve it so is can be passed on accurately and then breathe a fresh breath of life into what we know by sharing our passion with those who come behind us in the future generations.
