Hola a todos , está semana volvimos al Dojo .
Como cada año, antes del regreso a las clases tenemos la costumbre de reacondicionar el espacio para hacerlo más ameno para los estudiantes que ahí entrenan. Este Dojo es donde doy clases junto a mi sensei Nicola Favia y en esta ocasión nos acompaño su hijo Maikol Favia, que vino desde Colombia por las fechas navideñas.
Hello everyone, this week we returned to the Dojo. Like every year, before returning to classes we have the habit of reconditioning the space to make it more pleasant for the students who train there. This Dojo is where I teach with my sensei Nicola Favia and on this occasion his son Maikol Favia accompanied us, who came from Colombia for Christmas.
Painting and maintenance work was carried out, we installed more lighting and now a stadium appears instead of a Dojo hahaha, I believe that with better lighting, the reception of information is better, which is very important when teaching movement techniques even in oratory when communicating since there is greater concentration. The fact was that we reorganized some things and removed old ones, renewing the energy in the place, this is accompanied by our own energy that makes the place have that heat.
Para los que no saben Dojo en las disciplinas marciales Japonesas se traduce como lugar donde se desarrolla el "Do" o camino / senda.
Esto pasa a ser como una segunda casa para todo aquel practicante de alguna de estas disciplinas, llámese judo, jujitsu, kendo, iaido , kobudo y como es mi caso Karate Do. En el Dojo se manejan códigos básicos como por ejemplo : saludar al entrar y salir del mismo. Saludar al alumno menor y la maestro, mantener el orden y limpieza , mantener una conducta serena y sobretodo respetarse entre si. Para mencionarles algunas.
For those who do not know, Dojo in Japanese martial disciplines translates as a place where the "Do" or path/path takes place. This becomes like a second home for anyone practicing any of these disciplines, be it judo, jujitsu, kendo, iaido, kobudo and, as in my case, Karate Do. In the Dojo, basic codes are used, such as: greeting when entering and leaving it. Greet the younger student and the teacher, maintain order and cleanliness, maintain a serene behavior and, above all, respect each other. To mention a few.
This year we were thinking of moving but due to situations beyond our control we couldn't, we had this in mind since there is a filtration problem that has complicated things a bit for us. This week we hope to resolve that.
Quería mostrarles lo que el trabajo en equipo puede lograr y que la voluntad puede hacer mucho , aveces estamos sin ganas siquiera de salir a la calle , pero hay que hacer y resolver cosas por muy sencillas que parezcan significan un gran logro, en este ocasión es el mantenimiento de mi segunda casa que por tantos años me ha permitido crecer como persona, como instructor y como guerrero. Por que no hay mejor escuela que la paciencia y la disciplina. Luego del trabajo del día fuimos a casa de mi maestro a almorzar donde conversamos algunos detalles de lo que se estaba haciendo y lo que quedaba pendiente para el día siguiente. Ya terminado todo lo que había que hacer , tuvimos una clase de avanzados para practicar un Kata llamado "Anan Dai" dentro de la linea del estilo Shito Ryu que es el que hago. Aquí tratamos ciertos aspectos técnicos de gran utilidad , este es uno de los katas más ejecutados en las competiciones a nivel mundial.
I wanted to show them what teamwork can achieve and that willpower can do a lot, sometimes we don't even feel like going out, but we have to do and solve things, no matter how simple they may seem, they mean a great achievement, on this occasion it is the maintenance of my second home that for so many years has allowed me to grow as a person, as an instructor and as a warrior. Because there is no better school than patience and discipline. After the day's work we went to my teacher's house for lunch where we discussed some details of what was being done and what was pending for the next day. Once everything that had to be done was finished, we had an advanced class to practice a Kata called "Anan Dai" within the line of the Shito Ryu style, which is what I do. Here we discuss certain very useful technical aspects, this is one of the most performed kata in competitions worldwide.
En conclusión, quedamos muy contentos con los resultados tomando la mejor actitud para este nuevo año que comienza y recordando que ante la adversidad la constancia y el trabajo son los que harán que todo fluya , siempre con la vista la frente buscando la mejor manera de escalar la montaña.
Saludos.
In conclusion, we were very happy with the results, taking the best attitude for this new year that begins and remembering that in the face of adversity, perseverance and work are what will make everything flow, always with our eyes on the forehead looking for the best way to climb. the mountain. Greetings
I say goodbye for now until a new opportunity
