4. 慈悲 - Benevolence

A practitioner of the Shaolin Arts respects life in every form. Every life is sacred. Thereby valuing life leads to respect for fellow human beings, respect for fellow human beings is necessary to have a harmonic Community.

A Tang Soo Do Club student is encouraged to practice a reverence for all life, promote and engage in community events as well as being mindful of our actions including protecting our greater natural environment. 🌲🌳

3. 謙虛 - Modesty

A practitioner of the Shaolin Arts is characterised by modesty. Bragging is unfamiliar. Being respectful towards others and especially the teachers. All we do, derived from the purity of our heart.
Modesty enable us to never overestimate ourselves and to never underestimate our surroundings.

The third of four virtues to be expected of Shaolin Arts student’s. It is important not to forget these traditional virtues whether during martial arts training or in our daily lives.

This photo is from one of our first social events which was a black mountain hike followed by a bbq at ANU. We’re looking to plan multiple social events each semester by the club this year and collaborating with other ANU Clubs.
