Shotokan-kez Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 The highest rank at our club would say sensei ni rei and the rest will bow and say oss! Walk away and your always a winner. https://www.shikata-shotokan.co.uk

Shui Tora Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 I don't know how to spell it, but we start with, "Yoshiro omawato migi obi na su." Okay... lets see;"Yoshiro", could be "Well..." or "Ready!" do you mean " ushiro "? Which means Back"Omawato", have no idea..."Migi" means "right/correct""Obi" is belt"Na" could be name/title...And "Su"... no idea!So (my interpretation) could be; Ready! All gi's and belts correct to Rank... Again, my interpretation...What is it meant to mean? To know the road ahead; ask those coming back... ~ Chinese Proverb" The ultimate aim of Karate lies not in victory or defeat, but in the perfection of the character of its participants.

Jiffy Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Nice Work. Would be a little easier with English translation though.... The mind is like a parachute, it only works when it's open.

Brady Posted August 31, 2006 Author Posted August 31, 2006 Good work Shui, what it basically means, is straighten out your gi and obi and line up by rank...More or less.B "You can't learn karate from a book. You gotta paint the fence."
Shui Tora Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 ^ Well; that wasn't bad for me! If it were written in japanese/katan/hirgagana then i would've been able to do a better job... That's the problem with writing the words phonetically, you can bet that you'll get a word wrong and the whole thing will sound completely different!

kivikala Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 Each dojo have their own formalities. As has been suggested, it is totally approriate to ask your instructor for guidance on this. By observation, the general proceedure does not seem to be all that different from school to school.
