What We Teach Beyond Technique

Anthony Butler

Respect: thank partners; take care of each other.

Ownership: show up on time, help clean, tie your belt, learn your responsibilities.

Curiosity: ask why a move works, not just how.

Calm: breathe under pressure; think first, act second.

Service: help the newer kid the way someone helped you.
