School Etiquette & Rules

The Founder & Head Instructor shall always be addressed as Tuhon Akrish. Regardless of the relationship outside of the school, during class time the relationship will be formal, respectful & proper.

This formality is reflected by the attitude and attributes of the BDSC student. In other words, one must show complete formality throughout the lesson time as a means of their own, personal self-respect.
