Confucius For Karate Students One of the sayings of Confucius thats quoted most often is his version of the Golden Rule: “Do not do to others what you would not have them do to you.” In a karate class, following the Golden Rule is as simple as respecting your fellow students and listening to your instructor. For instance, when you spar with other students, you must control your techniques. You wouldn’t want someone to blast you in the face with a reverse punch, so you don’t hit your partner as hard as you can, either. Likewise, if you were an instructor, you wouldn’t want your students to ignore you or argue with you while you were teaching. You would want them to quietly listen to what you say and then try to follow your instructions. So as a student, you should show your instructor the same courtesy. — Garik Theov
