Re: Hakama protocol: left or right leg first?

It all has meaning, although even within Japanese culture, the details are not necessarily understood. Just as I might not identify the tartan of a particular Scottish clan, a native of Japan might not know the details of a particular hakama. But it has meaning.

Usually, in my experience, Ifve found it is better to know as much as you can. You are better off connected to the minds of others.
