A very good example of the Negotiation Stance or 対応の構え。The paws are in the open mode which does not antagonize the person you are forced to deal with. A closed paw would send a message that you ready to rumble. We will be starting a net pal relationship between Yokohama, Makiki and Kesshinkai Dojo under Antony Demarco Sensei of New York in the near future. Through the net pal, the children will learn more of each other’s culture and also get to practice their English, Japanese and Pidgin English.
Mommies can also exchange receipes, discusss differences in rasing children.
Daddies can discuss differences in handling wives. (^^)
