A round of applause

[blacknebula]

We applaud when Sensei hands out new belts (or verbally acknowledges the passing grade, if the belt colour is not changing) but that is the only time we do so in the dojo. At tournaments people generally clap after each match and at the end of each category.

Sure, we applaud during ceremonies and the like, but, during a class, no!!
