Code of Conduct:

Forward
- Wushu (martial arts/skills) embodies wude (martial morals). Therefore, wushu practitioners must also cultivate wude. The higher one's standard of wushu, the higher will be one's wude, and vice-versa. The following is our code of conduct and discipline in order to guide our members towards the cultivation of wude.
Respect the Master / Teacher
As the old Chinese precept goes: Yi ri wei shi zhong shen wei fu. "A master for one day is a father for a lifetime." As such, all wushu (taijiquan) practicioners:
1. Must not commit acts that are detrimental to the reputation of the master and the school.
2. Must not turn ungrateful to the master. He who does not respect his master will not be fit to assume the role of a master to others.
Respect the Art (Taijiquan)
All members must:
1. Adopt a serious attitude towards the art.
2. Not teach the art without the consent of the master, for a little knowledge is dangerous.
3. Not abuse or misuse the art.
Respect Others
All members must:
1. Refrain from ill-criticism of other martial arts, and their instructors / exponents / students.
2. Refrain from ill-criticism of other styles of Taijiquan and their instructors / exponents / students.
3. Respect others, for he who respects others will in turn be respected.
Self Cultivation
All members must:
1. Cultivate a noble character and a profound tolerance.
2. Be honest towards oneself and others.
3. Conduct yourself in accordance with the precepts of:
  - Li = Ettiquette or propriety
  - Yi = Righteousness
  - Lian = Sense of honor
  - Chi = Sense of shame
4. Win the respect of others with your wude, not your wushu.
