The Karate Bow

What does it mean to bow to another student or instructor? It means “teach me”.

You bow 3 times:
1 - When you come in
2 - To the teacher
3 - When you leave

The first bow means love
The second bow means “stay calm”
The third bow means enlightenment. Try to travel, find out how you are. Learn about yourself.
