Re: Do you fold your Sensei's hakama?
Hello,
her in Belgium I never heard of folding the teacher's hakama; even our old teacher folded his own when he was already 80 years old. First time that I saw at a seminar some student folding the shihan's hakama, it was a sort of minor cultural shock. I find that somehow disturbing - like Tarik's comparison to "asking someone to fold your pants".
Luckily, I fold my own in such an ugly way no teacher will ever risk his hakama to be put in my hands...
Best regards,
Eva
