PROPER INTRODUCTORY GESTURES

The introductory gestures must be done in the most respectable way in any ceremonies. The idea is to show respect to the guest (VIP, Chief Instructor, etc). To not show the fist too much or to turn one's back on the guest too much.

PROPRIETIES IN JURUS MOVEMENT

Proprieties in the jurus movement is the same as in the INTRODUCTORY GESTURES, except that it is shown with foot movements, punches, and kicks.

PROPRIETIES IN DUTY AND RESPONSIBILITY

Request permission and consent from Guru is important just as a son's respect and filial piety towards his parents is important for him to achieve any form of knowledge.

This is also true in all ceremonies or celebations, complete with all its proprieties.
