So, a while back I mentioned my fledgling Judo Catechism that I'm doing with my judo kids.  It gives us something to talk about during warm-ups.  It begins...
- Q: What does the word judo mean?
 - A: Soft Art
 - Q: What are the two most important things to learn in judo?
 - A: How to fall right and how to act right."
 
Lately I've added the "First rule of judo" and the "Second rule of judo."
- Q: What is the First Rule of Judo?
 - A: "You and me both win"
 - Q: What is the Second Rule of Judo?
 - A: "Find the easiest way for both of us to win."
 
Hmmm... Where have I heard those before?  The kids are making great progress learning these.
