I for one am concerned that not enough respect and etiquette is being followed in our dojos :
1. Sensei Cope must not be referred to or addressed as "Frank".
It must be "Sensei Cope". Sensei Cope is our Chief Instructor and must be treated with due respect.
2. Bows must be performed in the correct manner - hands by your sides, bowing from the waist - NOT A QUICK NOD OF THE HEAD.
When a Junior grade bows to a Senior grade, the Junior grades' bow should be slightly lower.
3. There must be no swearing in the dojo.
4. People watching the class (Parents, club members etc) should not talk in a volume that disturbs the class.
5. When counting for the class, counting should be in Japanese NOT English.
