Congratulations to my nephew on earning his white belt!

Starting a journey in martial arts can be intimidating. This is the beginning of a lifelong journey. It takes humility, bravery and discipline. I am so proud of my nephew and look forward to training with him.

Shoshin is the foundation of all learning. It is the "beginner's mind". It refers to having an open, empty mind, free from preconceived notions and judgments, as a true beginner would. It emphasizes the importance of approaching situations with curiosity, openness, and a willingness to learn, even at an advanced level.

Shoshin is for Budokas (martial arts practitioners) at all levels. As a white belt, it means emptying one's preconceived ideas and enjoying the process.
