Dojo's Friend for March

Dojo's Friend for March was Sam.

All I can say is....wow, wow, wow!

Sam has been awarded Dojo before( in October).  However this is a very different Sam we see before us now.  I count in english.......I hear him counting in Japanese, I ask a question.... Sam gives me the correct answer and explains why, I ask everyone to make sure they're stood still and listening.......he is already doing just that!

Sam has blown, both myself and Dojo, away with his dedication, commitment and growing maturity. He is a totally different young man who first entered our Dojo in July last year.

I couldn't be prouder of Sam and look forward to the next grading, where I'm sure, all his hard work will pay off, with the receiving of a coloured belt.
