PRINCIPLES OF BLACK BELT

AS A STUDENT OF THE MARTIAL ARTS, I SHALL LIVE BY
THE WAYS OF A BLACK BELT…

COURTESY
To be polite to your family, teachers and friends.

INTEGRITY
To be honest with yourself - you must be able to define right from wrong.

PERSEVERANCE
Never give up – to achieve a goal, whether it is a higher grade or a personal
goal, you must never stop trying; you must persevere!

SELF-CONTROL
Never lose your temper - to lose your temper shows a lack of control. To be
able to live, work and train within your capabilities shows good self control.

HUMILITY
No one is perfect – no matter how much we think we know, there is always more
to learn.

INDOMITABLE SPIRIT
To show courage - when you and your principles are pitted against overwhelming
odds, find and use your courage.

TEN POINTS ON BECOMING A GOOD

STUDENT
1. Trust in the guidance of your Instructor, they are here to help you
achieve your goals and will know the best way to help you get there.

2. Practise, your class time is limited so take the opportunities you have
to practise and perfect your techniques.

3. Martial Arts is a two way street. It is about learning and sharing. A

good student would consider it an honour to assist another in a time
of need.

4. ‘You are never wrong!’ you are just learning and perfecting. This
MUST always be borne in mind when helping others.

5. Respect is something you earn and in order to receive it, you must
give it. Never disrespect another student.

6. You are judged as a Martial Artist where ever you go and who ever
you are with. Your conduct outside the classroom is a direct reflection
of you and your Academy, so make it a good one!

7. True humility is only ever found in those who strive for perfection not
in themselves, but in those around them. The one who needs your
help the most is the one who will never ask for it. So don’t wait to be
asked, offer!

8. Learning and developing new skills can sometime challenge the

strongest personality. A good student will show courage when faced
with an obstacle and strive to overcome it.

9. The road to self improvement has many paths, you will spend time
working on the physical and the mental, but take time to read and
develop your brain as well.

10. The greatest respect you can show your Academy and Instructor is to
share them with your friends and family. A good student will, at every
opportunity, invite and encourage those around them to become
students of their art.

PATTERNS: CHOONG-MOO .

CHOONG-MOO was the name given to the great Admiral Yi Soon-Sin of the Lee
Dynasty. He was reputed to have invented the first armoured battleship (Kobukson)
in 1592, which is said to be the precursor of the present day submarine. The reason
why this pattern ends with a left hand attack is to symbolize his regrettable death,
having no chance to show his unrestrained potentiality, checked by the forced
reservation of his loyalty to the king. . .
