Hello Yamagawa family. Update for beach training tomorrow morning: We will meet at the Dojo at 9:00am.
We will then make our way to either Keast Park or just across the road to the Seaford beach.

Please remember to bring a towel and change of clothes. We will be training in our Gis and will also be training in and out of the water.

Also, could everyone bring a plate as we will grab a BBQ and have a feed after training.

I look forward to seeing many faces in the morning.

It's been a busy few weeks down at the Dojo. As the year draws to an end, we reflect on our training a little and see what and how we've grown. Depending on your perspective, next year is potentially a new start...or it's just the day after New Year's Eve.

Slowly we build - ourselves, our communities, and our parts in this world.
Although it is easy, and sometimes instinct, to judge others, it is important to remember that without knowing why people do things we can not understand them. Without ourselves experiencing the same, we cannot empathise.

So, we focus on our own journey - struggle, pain, loss, triumph, celebration, introspection, accountability, formidability, sensitivity, self-discipline, and self-criticism. To forgive yourself of your inadequacies is good. To love and accept them as temporary and transient states is better.

Our Budo is our own - shared with the commonality of struggle. In good training, we all struggle, so we can smile and support that shared experience. This way, we can respect each other, despite not knowing what the struggle is to each other. This way we can support each other, for the common goal of perseverance and personal development.

Budo, born of Bujutsu, is always about combat. Engaging in and of different dimensions, sure; and everyone’s subjective experience is different, sure. But always, combat.

Martial arts is an effective means of enhancing impulse control in children, as it focuses on fostering discipline, self-awareness, and respect. Through consistent practice, children learn to control their emotions, actions, and reactions. The structured environment and clear rules of martial arts create a framework for kids to develop self-regulation and decision-making skills. The emphasis on mindfulness, concentration, and meditation also helps children recognize their impulses and manage them effectively. As they progress, they become more adept at channeling their energy productively, resulting in better impulse control, improved social skills, and emotional balance.
