This Part 2 can actually be written as 'Be observant'but I will break it down
1)Pay attention-there's a lot going on in the dojo and you need to be wholly present.
2)Keep toe and hand nails short
3)Clapping by the instructor signifies the end of a technique.Stop immediately,bow to your partner and go back to the line .
If instructed to remain in the current position,sit in seiza
4)Sit in seiza or cross legged ONLY-no stretching of legs or kneeling in class.Do not lean on the walls either
5)At the end of the class,bow to your partners.
6)Always bow when leaving the class,in the direction of the kamiza.
7)At the beginning and end of the class,as much as it's possible,sit in one straight line.
8)Be patient-with yourself and parners
9)Relax-easier said than done,I know but it makes your Aikido experience better.
