Show up

Show up means, be consistent. Its not what we do on our best day that defines our success, it's what we can still get done on our worst day. It's about getting 1% better every day over a long period of time. In Jiu Jitsu it means show up to class whether you are happy or sad, energetic or tired. Just show up and do what you can, and you will be amazed what you can accomplish within just a few months.

Step up

Jiu Jitsu is an effective vehicle for self improvement because it often presents you with opportunities to step outside your comfort zone and take on challenges. When we take on challenges, we don't know for certain if we will fail or succeed but when we fail we learn, and when we learn we grow. That is the nature of Jiu Jitsu, to routinely push your boundaries to become a better version of yourself. Step up means you are grateful for the challenge and you meet it head on with a smile, knowing that there is no losing, only learning.

Level up

Leveling up is the goal, its why you step on to the mat to begin with but really its less of a destination and more of a direction. The direction of evolution, of getting better. And it is merely a bi-product of the first two principles of Dojo Hawk Jiu Jitsu. If you Consistently show up, and you welcome the challenges you are faced with, getting better will simply be a result of your process. Thats what we are all about at Dojo Hawk: Perfecting the process of self improvement.
