Do you remember the excited feeling you had as a child on your first day of school? The anticipation of starting something new after having the whole summer off? Who will be your new teacher? Who will your friends be? Who will you be this year? When you stepped through those school doors, you crossed a threshold into a whole new world.
As you come back to the dojo this week, see if you can have the first step you take through the door have that same feeling. Who will you be this year at the dojo? What are you curious about? What gets you excited about learning? What do you want to discover about movement? About martial awareness? About yourself?
And of course the assignment is to walk through the dojo door every day of the year with that same feeling.
