口伝 – kuden = oral transmission
Waiting around for your sensei to pull you aside one day and reveal your beloved style’s innermost secrets? Well…you’re wasting your time that moment may never happen, in fact, it’s more than likely happened already—when every time you stepped into the dojo to train! The transmission happens slowly steadily over countless interactions and over the correct understanding of basic concepts that prepare you for “higher” level stuff.
There may be an “AHA!” moment that was triggered by something your sensei said that brings all of it together for you BUT it’s just that you had all the pieces and you put them together, so no secrets just hard work that reveal their connections.
So, pay attention every class!
