The 7-5-3 Code (No Gi)

The 7-5-3 Code is broken into 3 sections: The 7 Virtues of a Warrior, The 5 Keys to Health, and The 3 States of Mind.

7 Virtues of a Warrior

The 7 Virtues of a Warrior help to guide the jiujiteiro in his interactions with others. With these virtues in mind we can hope to do right by others and ourselves, and not allow our training to falsely inflate our ego, sense of power and importance. 

• Rectitude
• Courage
• Benevolence
• Politeness/Propriety
• Honesty/Sincerity
• Honor
• Loyalty

5 Keys to Health

The 5 Keys to Health assist us in ensuring that we are at our most physically fit, so our training does not suffer.

• Rational Nutrition
• Sensible Exercise
• Efficient Rest
• Proper Hygiene
• Positive Attitude

The 3 States of Mind

The 3 States of Mind guide our inner relationship, so that we will think with clear mindedness and wisdom.

• Zanshin (Alertness/Awareness)
• Mushin (Clear Mind)
• Fudoshin (Emotion Balance)
